I don't know which tutorial you were following, but I don't understand why you would apply a temperature BC to the same face that you have applied a radiation BC. If you suppress the temperature BC, then the solution computes the temperature in the body for the two other BC you have specified.
Why do all the other faces not have radiation BCs, except for maybe the one face that is in contact with an insulated support structure. Is this object in a vacuum? If it is in air, why don't all the faces (except the face contacting the support) have a convection BC?
