Explores emissivity, absorptivity, and reflectivity of surfaces, including spectral and directional properties, laws of reciprocity, and practical examples.
Explores specular view factors and radiative exchange between partially-specular gray surfaces, including energy transfer rates and non-gray surface exchange.
Explores the emission of thermal radiation, covering mechanisms, electromagnetic radiation, temperature relationship, spatial distribution, and black-body radiation.
Explores the fundamentals of heat transfer, including radiation properties, energy conservation, and thermal conductivity, covering conduction, convection, and participating media.
Explores radiative heat transfer principles in the presence of conduction and convection, covering surface exchange, coupled heat transfer, thermocouples, and gas flow.
