Thermal radiation is a distinct mechanism of heat transfer that allows spatially separated objects at different temperatures to transfer heat. Radiative Emissive Power According to the Stefan-Boltzmann equation, the total energy emitted by a body is proportional to T⁴, where T is the temperature in Kelvin. The total emissive power is expressed as: Where σ is […]
