Discusses radiative properties and heat exchange between surfaces, emphasizing theoretical concepts and practical applications in energy transfer calculations.
Explores emissivity, absorptivity, and reflectivity of surfaces, including spectral and directional properties, laws of reciprocity, and practical examples.
Explores the Monte Carlo method for thermal radiation, covering radiative energy bundles, flux, surface relations, view factors, and radiative exchange computation.
Explores specular view factors and radiative exchange between partially-specular gray surfaces, including energy transfer rates and non-gray surface exchange.
