1 Introduction to Thermal Radiation and Radiation Heat Transfer

2 Thermal Radiation Occurs in solids, liquids, and gases Occurs at the speed of light Has no attenuation in a vacuum Can occur between two bodies with a colder medium in between Occurs in combination with conduction and convection, and significant where large temperature differences occur Applications: Furnace with boiler tubes, radiant dryers, oven baking, designing heaters for manufacturing, estimating heat gains through windows, infrared cameras, metal cooling during manufacturing, Greenhouse effect, thermos design, among others.

3 Background Electromagnetic radiation – energy emitted due to changes in electronic configurations of atoms or molecules where =wavelength (usually in  m), =frequency In a vacuum c=c o =2.998x10 8 m/s Other media: c=c o /n where n=index of refraction

4 Background, cont. Radiation – photons or waves? Max Planck (1900): each photon has an energy of h=Planck ’ s constant=6.625 x 10 -34 Js Shorter wavelengths have higher energy

5 Radiation Spectrum

6 Types of Radiation Two categories –Volumetric phenomenon – radiation emitted or absorbed throughout gases, transparent solids, some fluids –Surface phenomenon – radiation to/from solid or liquid surface Thermal radiation – emitted by all substances above absolute zero Includes visible & infrared radiation & some UV radiation.

7 Radiation Properties Magnitude of radiation varies with wavelength – it ’ s spectral. –The wavelength of the radiation is a major factor in what its effects will be. –Earth/sun example Radiation is made up of a continuous, nonuniform distribution of monochromatic (single-wavelength) components. Magnitude & spectral distribution (how the radiation varies with wavelength) vary with temp & type of emitting surface.

8 Emission Variation with Wavelength

9 Blackbody Radiation Blackbody – a perfect emitter & absorber of radiation; it absorbs all incident radiation, and no surface can emit more for a given temperature and wavelength Emits radiation uniformly in all directions – no directional distribution – it ’ s diffuse Example of a blackbody: large cavity with a small hole

10 Stefan-Boltzmann Law Joseph Stefan (1879) – total radiation emission per unit time & area over all wavelengths and in all directions:  =Stefan-Boltzmann constant =5.67 x10 -8 W/m 2 K 4 Tmust be in absolute scale.

11 Planck ’ s Distribution Law Sometimes we care about the radiation in a certain wavelength interval For a surface in a vacuum or gas Integrating this function over all gives us

12 Radiation Distribution Radiation is a continuous function of wavelength Magnitude increases with temp. At higher temps, more radiation is at shorter wavelengths. Solar radiation peak is in the visible range.

13 Wien ’ s Displacement Law Wavelength of radiation with the largest magnitude can be found for different temps using Wien ’ s Displacement Law: Note that color is a function of absorption & reflection, not emission.

14 What is your favorite wavelength?

15 More Radiation Properties Directional distribution – a surface doesn ’ t emit the same in all directions. Hemispherical – refers to all directions

16 Emissive Power E: amount of radiation emitted per unit area Spectral hemispherical emissive power E (often leave out the word “ hemispherical ” ) W/m 2 –Rate of emission per unit area of radiation of a given wavelength in all directions per unit wavelength interval Total (hemisperical) emissive power E (W/m 2 ) –Rate of emission per unit area of radiation of all wavelengths and in all directions; this is

17 Diffuse emitters Diffuse emitter: intensity is the same in all directions

18 Irradiation Irradiation: radiation incident on (hitting) a surface per unit area

19 Radiosity Radiosity: all radiation leaving a surface per unit area, both emitted and reflected

25 In general: Opaque material:  = absorptivity  = reflectivity  = transmissivity

26 Mechanism of Radiation Heat Transfer Thermal energy of hot source ( furnace wall at T1) is converted into radiant energy. These waves travel through the intervening space in straight lines and strike a cold object at T2 such as a furnace tube The electromagnetic waves that strike the body are absorbed and converted back to thermal energy.

27 Black Body and Gray Body Black Body –absorptivity =  –emissivity =  –ideal emissive power = E b Gray Body –absorptivity < 1 –emissivity < 1 (independent of wavelength) –emissive power<1
