  2. Thermal emittance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_emittance

    Thermal emittance or thermal emissivity is the ratio of the radiant emittance of heat of a specific object or surface to that of a standard black body.Emissivity and emittivity are both dimensionless quantities given in the range of 0 to 1, representing the comparative/relative emittance with respect to a blackbody operating in similar conditions, but emissivity refers to a material property ...

  3. Low emissivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_emissivity

    Low emissivity (low e or low thermal emissivity) refers to a surface condition that emits low levels of radiant thermal (heat) energy. All materials absorb, reflect, and emit radiant energy according to Planck's law but here, the primary concern is a special wavelength interval of radiant energy, namely thermal radiation of materials.

  4. Wien approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wien_approximation

    Wien's approximation (also sometimes called Wien's law or the Wien distribution law) is a law of physics used to describe the spectrum of thermal radiation (frequently called the blackbody function). This law was first derived by Wilhelm Wien in 1896.

  5. Thermal radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_radiation

    Thermal radiation in visible light can be seen on this hot metalwork. Its emission in the infrared is invisible to the human eye. Infrared cameras are capable of capturing this infrared emission (see Thermography). Thermal radiation is electromagnetic radiation emitted by the thermal motion of particles in matter.

  6. LO-NOx burner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LO-NOx_burner

    The Australian Gas Association in turn reduced the indoor emission rate of NO 2 for unflued gas heaters from 15 to 5 ng/J and this remains the current limit. [4] The New South Wales government, through the Public Works Department, also re-evaluated alternative methods of heating classrooms, to ensure a safe and healthy environment for students.

  7. Infrared heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_heater

    Radiant tube heaters; Radiant tube gas-fired heaters used for industrial and commercial building space heating burn natural gas or propane to heat a steel emitter tube. Gas passing through a control valve flows through a cup burner or a venturi. The combustion product gases heat the emitter tube.

  9. Thermal infrared spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_infrared_spectroscopy

    Thermal infrared spectroscopy (TIR spectroscopy) is the subset of infrared spectroscopy that deals with radiation emitted in the infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The emitted infrared radiation, though similar to blackbody radiation, is different in that the radiation is banded at characteristic vibrations in the material.
