Consider a printed circuit board that has electronic components on one side. The board is placed in a room at . The heat loss from the back surface of the board is negligible. If the circuit board is dissipating of power in steady operation, Find the average temperature of the hot surface of the board, assuming the board is vertical; horizontal with hot surface facing up; and horizontal with hot surface facing down. Take the emissivity of the surface of the board to be and assume the surrounding surfaces to be at the same temperature as the air in the room.
