Radiation is a mode of heat transfer that does not require a medium. Thermal radiation is emitted from all objects based on their temperature and is characterized by properties like emissivity. Radiation plays a key role in heating the Earth's surface from the Sun. The amount of radiation emitted by an object increases with its temperature, as described by Stefan-Boltzmann law. Radiation interacts with textiles through absorption, emission, transmission, and scattering depending on fiber properties. Research aims to model radiation transfer through textiles and its role in thermal insulation and heat stress protection.
The document discusses several topics related to emissive power and absorptive power of bodies at different temperatures, including:
- Emissive power is defined as the energy emitted per second per unit surface area within a wavelength range. Absorptive power is defined as the ratio of energy absorbed to energy incident on a surface.
- Kirchhoff's law states that for a body in thermal equilibrium, the emissive power and absorptive power are equal for each wavelength.
- The rate of energy emission from a perfectly black body is directly proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature, according to Stefan's law.
Heat transfer due to emission of electromagnetic waves is known as thermal radiation. Heat transfer through radiation takes place in form of electromagnetic waves mainly in the infrared region. Radiation emitted by a body is a consequence of thermal agitation of its composing molecules. The underlying mechanisms and the concepts involved are discussed in the ppt
Thermal radiation occurs across a wide spectrum of electromagnetic wavelengths. Most thermal radiation from objects at room temperature falls within the infrared range, which is invisible to the human eye. The wavelength distribution of radiation emitted by an object depends on its temperature according to Planck's law. Nearly all surfaces emit and absorb thermal radiation to some degree, with the ratio between emitted and absorbed radiation determined by the surface's emissivity. Emissivity also affects how much solar energy a surface absorbs. Proper material selection and surface treatments can influence thermal radiation to control heating and cooling in devices and systems.
- Radiation heat transfer occurs through electromagnetic waves emitted by surfaces due to their temperature. All real surfaces emit less than ideal blackbodies.
- The key radiative properties are emissivity ε, absorptivity α, reflectivity ρ, and transmissivity τ. For opaque surfaces, α + ρ = 1.
- Blackbodies have ε = 1 and emit thermal radiation described by Planck's law. Real surfaces emit radiation according to their emissivity and temperature.
- The rate of radiative heat transfer between two surfaces depends on their temperatures and emissivities, the shape factor F between their orientations, and the absorptivity of the receiving surface.

Kirchhoff's Law states that the emission of a body is equal to the ratio of its emissivity and the blackbody emission at a given wavelength and temperature. Wien's Law establishes that the dominant wavelength of blackbody radiation is inversely proportional to temperature. The Stefan-Boltzmann Law provides that the total energy flux radiated by a blackbody is directly proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature.
The document discusses three modes of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation. Radiation is defined as the transfer of heat through space or matter without the need for a medium and occurs via electromagnetic waves or photons. Some key laws governing radiant heat transfer are discussed, including Stefan-Boltzmann's law which states that the emissive power of a black body is proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature. Radiative properties like emissivity, absorptivity, and reflectivity are also covered.
There are three main ways that heat is transferred:
1. Convection, which is the transfer of heat by the bulk movement of fluids such as air and water.
2. Conduction, which is the direct transfer of heat through matter by collisions between atoms or molecules.
3. Radiation, which is the transfer of heat by electromagnetic waves such as infrared and visible light.
Incandescent light bulbs have a filament inside that glows white hot when electricity is passed through it. They are inefficient, with less than 10% of the energy producing light and 90% turned into heat. Fluorescent lights use mercury vapor and phosphors to produce visible light from ultraviolet rays, making them more efficient than incandescent bulbs. They do not get as hot and last longer than regular light bulbs.
This document covers various physics concepts including units of measurement, properties of matter, forces and motion, heat and temperature conversions. It defines important terms like density, power, strain, and specific gravity. Key concepts about atoms are described such as atomic number, mass number, isotopes, ionization, and the structure of the nucleus.
Thermal radiation is emitted by all objects due to the vibrational and rotational movements of molecules and atoms. It is transported via electromagnetic waves and can propagate through a vacuum. All objects emit radiation at any temperature above absolute zero according to their emissivity.
Blackbody radiation follows Planck's law, with a continuous frequency spectrum that depends only on temperature. It has a peak wavelength defined by Wien's displacement law. The total power output of blackbody radiation is described by Stefan-Boltzmann law.
The view factor is used to account for incomplete radiation exchange between surfaces, describing the fraction of radiation leaving one surface that is received by another. It is essential for calculating radiation heat transfer between surfaces.
This document describes an emissivity measurement apparatus that determines the emissivity of gray surfaces. It consists of a black plate and gray test plate that are electrically heated to the same temperature. The power input required to heat the gray plate to the same temperature as the black plate is measured. Since the plates have all other properties identical except emissivity, the difference in power input is due to the difference in emissivity. By measuring this power difference at various temperatures, the emissivity of the gray surface can be determined relative to the black plate.

This document discusses several laws relating to the radiation of heat, including:
1) Kirchhoff's law, which states that the emission of a body at a given wavelength and temperature is equal to the ratio of the emissivity and blackbody emission. Real objects emit less radiation than black bodies.
2) Wien's law, which says the dominant wavelength at which a blackbody emits radiation is inversely proportional to its temperature.
3) The Stefan-Boltzmann law, stating that a blackbody's total energy flux is directly proportional to the fourth power of its temperature.
- Thermal radiation is electromagnetic radiation emitted from objects due to their temperature. It includes infrared, visible light, and some ultraviolet wavelengths. A blackbody is a perfect emitter and absorber of radiation. According to Stefan-Boltzmann law, a blackbody's total emissive power is directly proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature. Planck's law describes the spectral distribution of a blackbody's radiative intensity as a function of wavelength and temperature. The emissivity of a surface is the ratio of radiation it emits compared to a blackbody. Kirchhoff's law states that emissivity of a surface is equal to its absorptivity at a given temperature and wavelength. The greenhouse effect
The document discusses various topics related to the transfer of heat, including:
1. The three main modes of heat transfer are conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction involves the transfer of heat between particles without particle movement, convection involves heat transfer via actual particle movement, and radiation transfers heat directly via electromagnetic waves.
2. When thermal radiation falls on an object, it can be absorbed, transmitted, or reflected. The absorptance, transmittance, and reflectance of an object describe these properties.
3. Blackbody radiation follows several laws, including Wien's displacement law and Stefan's law. Wien's law states the wavelength of peak emission is inversely proportional to temperature,
Radiation is a form of energy transfer that does not require a medium and travels at the speed of light. Unlike conduction and convection, radiation can transfer heat through a vacuum. All objects emit thermal radiation based on their temperature, with the spectrum and intensity of radiation described by blackbody radiation laws. Radiation transfer is important in applications like solar energy and remote heating/cooling between separated objects.
This document provides an overview of radiation heat transfer and outlines the course content for an undergraduate course on the topic. It discusses key concepts such as blackbody radiation, Planck's law, Stefan-Boltzmann law, and Wien's displacement law. Example problems are provided to illustrate calculating the spectral and total emissive power of blackbody radiation sources. The summary highlights that radiation transfer does not require a medium, occurs at the speed of light, and that surfaces behave as blackbodies when enclosed in an isothermal cavity.
1) Classical theories could not explain the spectrum of blackbody radiation, predicting infinite energy at short wavelengths.
2) Planck hypothesized that the oscillators could only emit or absorb energy in discrete quantized units proportional to frequency, avoiding the infinity.
3) This led to Planck's law of radiation, which correctly described the blackbody spectrum using a quantum of action hν. This founding of quantum theory resolved the ultraviolet catastrophe.
- Heat capacity is the amount of heat required to change an object's temperature by a certain amount. Materials with high heat capacity take longer to heat up or cool down as they can absorb more heat.
- Specific heat is the amount of heat required to raise 1 gram of a substance by 1°C. It is calculated using the formula Q=mcΔT, where Q is heat, m is mass, c is specific heat, and ΔT is change in temperature.
- Phase changes between solid, liquid and gas require latent heat—the absorption or release of heat without a change in temperature. The heat of fusion is required for melting and freezing, while the heat of vaporization is required for vaporization
The document defines different types of bodies in heat transfer:
1. A black body absorbs all radiation falling on its surface and is a perfect emitter.
2. A white body reflects all incident radiation falling on it.
3. A gray body's absorptivity does not vary with temperature or wavelength of incident radiation.
4. An opaque body does not transmit any radiation through it, while a transparent body transmits all radiation.

Three key elements are needed for a fire: fuel, air, and heat. Heat can transfer through conduction, convection, or radiation. The temperature and color of a fire's flames provide information about how hot it is, with blue/violet flames being the hottest. A fire burns as air flows in, is heated, and rises, pulling more air in behind it. Fires can be extinguished by removing fuel, oxygen, or heat, or by using fire suppression methods like cooling, smothering, or starvation. Proper precautions and fire safety practices can help prevent fires.
Heat can be transferred between objects or locations in three ways: conduction, convection, and radiation.
1) Conduction involves the transfer of heat through direct contact of objects. It occurs from high-temperature particles to neighboring lower-temperature particles.
2) Convection relies on the movement of fluids like gases and liquids to transfer heat. Warm fluids that are less dense rise and circulate, carrying heat energy with them.
3) Radiation transfers heat through electromagnetic waves like infrared and does not require contact or the movement of matter. All objects radiate heat based on their temperature through photons.
Fire is a rapid oxidation reaction that releases heat and light. It requires fuel, oxygen, and heat in a self-sustaining chain reaction known as the fire tetrahedron. There are different stages of a fire from ignition to growth to decay. Fires can be classified based on the type of fuel, such as class A for ordinary combustibles, class B for flammable liquids, and class C for energized electrical equipment. Each class requires specific extinguishing agents to safely put out the fire.
This document summarizes the three main mechanisms of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation. It explains key concepts for each type of transfer. Conduction involves the transfer of kinetic energy between molecules in direct contact. Convection involves the transfer of heat by the circulation of fluids (gases or liquids).

Heat Transfer Basic Laws and their applications in simple language .pdfPratikShaileshGaikwa
The document discusses several basic laws of heat transfer:
1) Fourier's law of heat conduction states that the rate of heat transfer through a material is proportional to the temperature gradient and the area, and inversely proportional to the thickness.
2) Newton's law of cooling states that the rate of heat transfer by convection is proportional to the surface area and the difference between the surface and fluid temperatures.
3) According to Stefan-Boltzmann law, the rate of heat transfer by radiation is proportional to the fourth power of the absolute surface temperature times the surface area.
Fire requires an oxidizing agent (usually oxygen), fuel, and heat in a chemical chain reaction known as the fire tetrahedron. There are four main ways to extinguish fire: reducing temperature, removing fuel, excluding oxygen, or inhibiting the chemical reaction. Fires are classified into A, B, C, or D depending on the type of fuel. Heat transfers between objects via conduction, convection, or radiation. A fire progresses through incipient, free-burning, and smoldering phases as oxygen is consumed.
This document discusses heat transfer and heat exchangers. It defines key units used in heat transfer such as temperature, heat, and heat capacity. It describes different types of heat including latent heat and methods of heat transfer including conduction, convection, and radiation. Specifically, it explains that heat is transferred through conduction by the movement of free electrons in metals and vibration of atoms/molecules, with the rate of conduction determined by thermal conductivity. It also provides examples of thermal conductivity values for common materials.
This document discusses Doppler broadening, which is the broadening of spectral lines caused by the Doppler effect of random thermal motion of molecules. Doppler broadening results in a lack of sharpness in spectral lines and a distribution of redshifted and blueshifted wavelengths due to a range of atomic speeds along the line of sight. The broadening depends on factors like the frequency, mass of emitting particles, and temperature, with higher temperatures resulting in greater broadening due to increased particle velocities. Doppler broadening also occurs in nuclear reactors as fuel temperature rises and uranium nuclei move more rapidly.
This document discusses fireworks, fire extinguishers, and combustion reactions. It begins with an introduction to how fire and rockets work through various demonstrations. Redox reactions are explained in the context of burning and propulsion. Common gases produced by combustion reactions are identified. The color production mechanisms in fireworks are then covered. Finally, the document discusses different types of fire extinguishers and how to appropriately respond to different types of fires.
This document discusses different methods of heat transfer:
1) Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact of particles without bulk motion of the material, such as from a hot metal rod to a cooler end.
2) Convection involves the transfer of heat by the bulk motion of fluids like air and water, such as hot air rising from a heated surface.
3) Radiation is the emission and propagation of energy in the form of electromagnetic waves or particles, without heating or cooling of the intervening medium, such as the emission of light and heat from a burning candle.
The natural greenhouse effect involves greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane absorbing and emitting radiative energy from the sun, maintaining a global temperature around 33°C higher than it would be otherwise. However, human activities like burning fossil fuels and deforestation have increased greenhouse gas levels, enhancing the greenhouse effect and causing global warming. This impacts the climate through more extreme weather, melting ice, droughts, and ocean acidification as CO2 reacts with seawater.
1) The document discusses three main modes of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction involves heat transfer through direct contact within a solid medium. Convection refers to heat transfer by fluid motion in either forced or natural situations. Radiation transfers heat through space or matter without conduction or convection.
2) It describes how the thermal conductivity of solids, liquids, and gases is affected by temperature changes. The thermal conductivity of most solids and liquids decreases with increasing temperature, while the conductivity of gases generally increases with temperature.
3) The document derives a generalized heat transfer equation for three-dimensional Cartesian coordinates, assuming a homogeneous, isotropic solid with constant physical parameters under steady-state conduction
This document provides information on fire chemistry and combustion. It defines fire as a chemical reaction that releases energy in the form of heat and light. Modern fire theory involves four elements - an oxidizing agent, reducing agent, heat, and an uninhibited chain reaction. It also describes methods of fire extinguishment like starvation, cooling, and blanketing. Fires are classified into different classes based on the type of fuel.

Thermal expansion is the change in dimensions of a material due to a change in temperature. Most materials expand when heated and contract when cooled. The factors that affect thermal expansion are the amount of temperature change, the type of material, and the original dimensions. Thermal expansion can be linear, affecting length, or volumetric, affecting the overall volume. Different materials have different coefficients of thermal expansion that quantify how much the material expands or contracts with temperature changes.

Prediction of Electrical Energy Efficiency Using Information on Consumer's Ac...PriyankaKilaniya
Energy efficiency has been important since the latter part of the last century. The main object of this survey is to determine the energy efficiency knowledge among consumers. Two separate districts in Bangladesh are selected to conduct the survey on households and showrooms about the energy and seller also. The survey uses the data to find some regression equations from which it is easy to predict energy efficiency knowledge. The data is analyzed and calculated based on five important criteria. The initial target was to find some factors that help predict a person's energy efficiency knowledge. From the survey, it is found that the energy efficiency awareness among the people of our country is very low. Relationships between household energy use behaviors are estimated using a unique dataset of about 40 households and 20 showrooms in Bangladesh's Chapainawabganj and Bagerhat districts. Knowledge of energy consumption and energy efficiency technology options is found to be associated with household use of energy conservation practices. Household characteristics also influence household energy use behavior. Younger household cohorts are more likely to adopt energy-efficient technologies and energy conservation practices and place primary importance on energy saving for environmental reasons. Education also influences attitudes toward energy conservation in Bangladesh. Low-education households indicate they primarily save electricity for the environment while high-education households indicate they are motivated by environmental concerns.

Road construction is not as easy as it seems to be, it includes various steps and it starts with its designing and
structure including the traffic volume consideration. Then base layer is done by bulldozers and levelers and after
base surface coating has to be done. For giving road a smooth surface with flexibility, Asphalt concrete is used.
Asphalt requires an aggregate sub base material layer, and then a base layer to be put into first place. Asphalt road
construction is formulated to support the heavy traffic load and climatic conditions. It is 100% recyclable and
saving non renewable natural resources.
With the advancement of technology, Asphalt technology gives assurance about the good drainage system and with
skid resistance it can be used where safety is necessary such as outsidethe schools.
The largest use of Asphalt is for making asphalt concrete for road surfaces. It is widely used in airports around the
world due to the sturdiness and ability to be repaired quickly, it is widely used for runways dedicated to aircraft
landing and taking off. Asphalt is normally stored and transported at 150’C or 300’F temperature

2. What is fire?
• Rapid oxidation (loss of electrons)
• Very exothermic combustion reaction
• Combustion: Fuel + O2 = CO2 + H2O + Heat
• Gives off heat and light
• Sometimes considered a plasma, but not all of
the flame is ionized gas
3. Flame Types
• Premixed: oxygen and fuel are already added
together
• Diffusion: oxygen is added to fuel during the
burning
6. Firelight Spectrum
• Primarily dependent on either premixing of
oxygen or diffusion rate, depending on type of
flame
• These determine rate of combustion, which
determines overall temperature and reaction
paths molecules take.
• Composition of fuel (wood, paper, propane)
determines how much energy can be given
off.
7. Other Contributors
• Blackbody Radiation from gas and fuel
particles
• Incandescence from small soot particles gives
off a continuous spectrum.
• The complete combustion of gas in a region
produces a blue flame from single wavelength
radiation from electron transitions in
molecules.
9. Using Color to Determine Temperature
• The many factors in the flame spectrum make
experimentally gathering data much more
convenient than theoretically describing it.
• Assumption: most of the light is emitted from
Carbon-based molecules.
10. Color/Temperature Table
• Red
– Just visible: 525 °C (980 °F)
– Dull: 700 °C (1,300 °F)
– Cherry, dull: 800 °C (1,500 °F)
– Cherry, full: 900 °C (1,700 °F)
– Cherry, clear: 1,000 °C (1,800 °F)
• Orange
– Deep: 1,100 °C (2,000 °F)
– Clear: 1,200 °C (2,200 °F)
• White
– Whitish: 1,300 °C (2,400 °F)
– Bright: 1,400 °C (2,600 °F)
– Dazzling: 1,500 °C (2,700 °F)
11. Gravity Effects
• Convection doesn’t occur in low gravity
• More soot becomes completely oxidized,
lowering incandescence
• Spectrum becomes dominated by emission
lines.
• Diffusion flames become blue and spherical
13. Propagation of Fire
• After burning, the fire has to move to
continue burning.
• Deflagration: subsonic propagation (flames)
• Detonation: supersonic propagation
(explosion)
14. Deflagration
• t_d approx. = d^2/k, where
• t_d = Thermal diffusion timescale (transfer of
heat)
• d= thin transitional region in which burning
occurs
• k= thermal diffusivity (how fast heat moves
relative to its heat capacity)
16. Deflagration
• In typical fires, t_b=t_d.
• This means d (the distance the fire travels) =
(k*t_d)^1/2 = (k*t_b)^1/2
• And the speed of the flame front: v = d/t_b =
(k/t_b)^1/2
• Note: this is an approximation assuming a
laminar flame; real fire contains turbulence.
18. Detonation
• An exothermic front accelerates through a
medium, driving a shock front directly ahead
of it.
• Pressures of flame front up to 4x greater than
a deflagration.
• This is why explosives are more destructive
than just burning.
19. Detonation
• Chapman- Jouguet theory- models detonation
as a propagating shock wave that also releases
heat.
• Their approximation: reactions and diffusive
transport of burning confined to infinitely thin
region
20. Detonation
• Zel’dovich , von Neumann, and Doering (ZND)
theory- more detailed modeling of detonation
developed in WW2.
• Their approximation: detonation is an
infinitely thin shock wave followed by a zone
of subsonic, exothermal chemical reaction
(fire).
