1) Perfectly black hot surface(plate A) is kept at constant temperature T1 (may be maintained by

supplying power) There is another prerfectly black cold surface (plate B) which is parallel to the first
one, and is kept at a constant temperature T2; There is vacuum in the space between the plates. In
order to reduce the heat flux between the plates a screen is used, which is made of N parallel
thermally insulated perfectly black plates (in the figure, N = 2, say plate C and D).such a screen is
placed between the hot and cold plates, parallel to them. The edge effects caused by the finite size of
the plates can be neglected. Because of the introduction of screen between the hot and cold plates
parallel to them, the heat flux is reduced by a factor 'x' once a thermal equilibrium (steady state) is
reached (N = 0, refers to no screen between two plates) Heat flux means net heat flow rate.
