  2. Thermal contact conductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_contact_conductance

    Most experimentally determined values of the thermal contact resistance fall between 0.000005 and 0.0005 m 2 K/W (the corresponding range of thermal contact conductance is 200,000 to 2000 W/m 2 K). To know whether the thermal contact resistance is significant or not, magnitudes of the thermal resistances of the layers are compared with typical ...

  3. Thermal conductance and resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductance_and...

    It quantifies how effectively a material can resist the transfer of heat through conduction, convection, and radiation. It has the units square metre kelvins per watt (m 2 ⋅K/W) in SI units or square foot degree Fahrenheit–hours per British thermal unit (ft 2 ⋅°F⋅h/Btu) in imperial units. The higher the thermal insulance, the better a ...

    Inset shows false color infrared thermograph of a roof on a sunny day; the white surfaces (colored blue in the thermograph) have been coated with an elastomer to reduce solar loading and have a surface temperature of approximately 60 °F (16 °C); the gray surfaces (colored red/white in the thermogram) are a standard asphalt (bitumen) coating and have a surface temperature of approximately 160 ...

  5. Atmospheric window - Wikipedia

    Also, out of about 340 W/m 2 of reflected shortwave (105 W/m 2) plus outgoing longwave radiation (235 W/m 2), 80-100 W/m 2 exits to space through the infrared window depending on cloudiness. About 40 W/m 2 of this transmitted amount is emitted by the surface, while most of the remainder comes from lower regions of the atmosphere. In a ...

  6. Radiative cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiative_cooling

    Infrared radiation can pass through dry, clear air in the wavelength range of 8–13 μm. Materials that can absorb energy and radiate it in those wavelengths exhibit a strong cooling effect. Materials that can also reflect 95% or more of sunlight in the 200 nanometres to 2.5 μm range can exhibit cooling even in direct sunlight. [9]

    Eventually, Michigan paid $2.5 million and Rodriguez paid $1.5 million to settle the dispute. Things didn’t go well for Rodriguez in Ann Arbor. He went 15-22 and was fired after the 2010 season.

  8. Radiant heating and cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiant_heating_and_cooling

    Heat radiation is the energy in the form of electromagnetic waves emitted by a solid, liquid, or gas as a result of its temperature. [37] In buildings, the radiant heat flow between two internal surfaces (or a surface and a person) is influenced by the emissivity of the heat emitting surface and by the view factor between this surface and the ...
