The plane is assumed to radiate diffusely as well as reflect heat energy. Convective heat transfer as well as radial conduction in the shell is neglected. The non-linear differential equation obtained from a heat balance made on a volume element of the shell is approximated by a linearized equation. The solution to the linearized equation is found in terms of Legendre polynomials and associated Legendre functions. Then some numerical results are obtained for which selected problem parameters are varied. 82 pp reformatted digital eng Copyright is held by the author, unless otherwise indicated.
