Variables Used

Radiation Heat Transfer Coefficient - (Measured in Watt per Square Meter per Kelvin) - Radiation Heat Transfer Coefficient is the heat transferred per unit area per kelvin. Thus area is included in the equation as it represents the area over which the transfer of heat takes place.
Emissivity - Emissivity is the ability of an object to emit infrared energy. Emissivity can have a value from 0 (shiny mirror) to 1.0 (blackbody). Most organic or oxidized surfaces have emissivity close to 0.95.
Plate Surface Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Plate Surface Temperature is the temperature at the surface of the plate.
Saturation Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Saturation temperature is the temperature at which a given liquid and its vapour or a given solid and its vapour can co-exist in equilibrium, at a given pressure.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Emissivity: 0.95 --> No Conversion Required
Plate Surface Temperature: 405 Kelvin --> 405 Kelvin No Conversion Required
Saturation Temperature: 373 Kelvin --> 373 Kelvin No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

h_r = (([Stefan-BoltZ]*ε*(((T_w)^4)-((T_Sat)^4)))/(T_w-T_Sat)) --> (([Stefan-BoltZ]*0.95*(((405)^4)-((373)^4)))/(405-373))

Evaluating ... ...

h_r = 12.7050878876955

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

12.7050878876955 Watt per Square Meter per Kelvin --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

12.7050878876955 ≈ 12.70509 Watt per Square Meter per Kelvin <-- Radiation Heat Transfer Coefficient
