  2. Schwarzschild's equation for radiative transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild's_equation...

    In the study of heat transfer, Schwarzschild's equation[1][2][3] is used to calculate radiative transfer (energy transfer via electromagnetic radiation) through a medium in local thermodynamic equilibrium that both absorbs and emits radiation. The incremental change in spectral intensity, [4] (dIλ, [W/sr/m 2 /μm]) at a given wavelength as ...

  3. Spectral flux density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_flux_density

    Spectral flux density. In spectroscopy, spectral flux density is the quantity that describes the rate at which energy is transferred by electromagnetic radiation through a real or virtual surface, per unit surface area and per unit wavelength (or, equivalently, per unit frequency). It is a radiometric rather than a photometric measure.

  4. Fick's laws of diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fick's_laws_of_diffusion

    D is the diffusion constant of the solute unit m 2 ⋅s −1, t is time unit s, c 2, c 1 concentration should use unit mol m −3, so flux unit becomes mol s −1. The flux is decay over the square root of time because a concentration gradient builds up near the membrane over time under ideal conditions.

  5. Jansky - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jansky

    10−23 erg⋅s−1⋅cm−2⋅Hz−1. The jansky (symbol Jy, plural janskys) is a non- SI unit of spectral flux density, [1] or spectral irradiance, used especially in radio astronomy. It is equivalent to 10 −26 watts per square metre per hertz. The spectral flux density or monochromatic flux, S, of a source is the integral of the spectral ...

  6. Radiative flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiative_flux

    Radiative flux. Radiative flux, also known as radiative flux density or radiation flux (or sometimes power flux density[1]), is the amount of power radiated through a given area, in the form of photons or other elementary particles, typically measured in W/m 2. [2] It is used in astronomy to determine the magnitude and spectral class of a star ...

  7. Constitutive equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitutive_equation

    The first constitutive equation (constitutive law) was developed by Robert Hooke and is known as Hooke's law.It deals with the case of linear elastic materials.Following this discovery, this type of equation, often called a "stress-strain relation" in this example, but also called a "constitutive assumption" or an "equation of state" was commonly used.

  8. Electric flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_flux

    Dimension. M L3 T−3 I−1. In electromagnetism, electric flux is the measure of the electric field through a given surface, [1] although an electric field in itself cannot flow. The electric field E can exert a force on an electric charge at any point in space. The electric field is the gradient of the potential.

  9. Radiant exitance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiant_exitance

    Flux density: E e [nb 2] watt per square metre W/m 2: M⋅T −3: Radiant flux received by a surface per unit area. This is sometimes also confusingly called "intensity". Spectral irradiance Spectral flux density: E e,ν [nb 3] watt per square metre per hertz W⋅m −2 ⋅Hz −1: M⋅T −2: Irradiance of a surface per unit frequency or ...
