Difference between Emissivity and Thermal radiation

Emissivity vs. Thermal radiation

The emissivity of the surface of a material is its effectiveness in emitting energy as thermal radiation. Thermal radiation is electromagnetic radiation generated by the thermal motion of charged particles in matter.

Similarities between Emissivity and Thermal radiation

Emissivity and Thermal radiation have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Black body, Infrared, Light, Low emissivity, Reflectance, Sakuma–Hattori equation, Stefan–Boltzmann law, View factor, Wavelength, Wien's displacement law.

Black body

A black body is an idealized physical body that absorbs all incident electromagnetic radiation, regardless of frequency or angle of incidence.

Infrared

Infrared radiation (IR) is electromagnetic radiation (EMR) with longer wavelengths than those of visible light, and is therefore generally invisible to the human eye (although IR at wavelengths up to 1050 nm from specially pulsed lasers can be seen by humans under certain conditions). It is sometimes called infrared light.

Light

Light is electromagnetic radiation within a certain portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Low emissivity

Low emissivity (low e or low thermal emissivity) refers to a surface condition that emits low levels of radiant thermal (heat) energy.

Reflectance

Reflectance of the surface of a material is its effectiveness in reflecting radiant energy.

Sakuma–Hattori equation

The Sakuma–Hattori equation is a mathematical model for predicting the amount of thermal radiation, radiometric flux or radiometric power emitted from a perfect blackbody or received by a thermal radiation detector.

Stefan–Boltzmann law

The Stefan–Boltzmann law describes the power radiated from a black body in terms of its temperature.

View factor

In radiative heat transfer, a view factor, F_, is the proportion of the radiation which leaves surface A that strikes surface B. In a complex 'scene' there can be any number of different objects, which can be divided in turn into even more surfaces and surface segments.

Wavelength

In physics, the wavelength is the spatial period of a periodic wave—the distance over which the wave's shape repeats.

Wien's displacement law

Wien's displacement law states that the black body radiation curve for different temperatures peaks at a wavelength inversely proportional to the temperature.

Emissivity and Thermal radiation Comparison

Emissivity has 47 relations, while Thermal radiation has 96. As they have in common 10, the Jaccard index is 6.99% = 10 / (47 + 96).
