This module calculates the radiative heat flow per unit surface between two plane surfaces, considering the case when these are separated by a non-absorptive medium.

On account of the Stefan-Boltzmann law, the unit radiative heat flow between the two surfaces is given by where with \inline e_1, \inline e_2 the emissivity factors of the first and second surface \inline (0 < e_1, e_2 \leq 1), \inline C_0 the emissivity constant of the black body \inline \displaystyle \left(C_0 \approx 5.669 \left[\frac{W}{m^2 K^4}\right]\right) and \inline T_1, \inline T_2 the corresponding absolute temperatures of the two plane surfaces.

In the diagram below is show the radiative heat transfer between two plane surfaces, in which \inline  E_1 is the radiative energy emitted by the first surface, \inline  E_2 is the radiative energy emitted by the second surface, \inline  A_1 is the energy emitted by the first surface and absorbed by the second, \inline  A_2 is the energy emitted by the second surface and absorbed by the first, \inline  R_1 is the radiative energy emitted by the first surface and reflected by the second and \inline  R_2 is the radiative energy emitted by the second surface and reflected by the first.

Example 1

The example below computes the unit radiative heat flow between an oxidated aluminium plane surface at 873.16 degrees Kelvin and an oxidated copper plane surface at 403.16 degrees Kelvin, separated by a non-absorptive medium.
#include <codecogs/engineering/heat_transfer/radiation/flow_noshield.h>
#include <stdio.h>
 
int main()
{
  // the temperature of the oxidated aluminium surface
  double T1 = 873.16;
 
  // the temperature of the oxidated copper surface
  double T2 = 403.16;
 
  // the emission factor of the aluminium surface
  double e1 = 0.19;
 
  // the emission factor of the copper surface
  double e2 = 0.76;
 
  // display radiative heat flow between the two plane surfaces
  printf("Radiative heat flow = %.5lf W per sq. meter\n",
  Engineering::Heat_Transfer::Radiation::flow_noshield(T1, T2, e1, e2));
 
  return 0;
}

Output

Radiative heat flow = 5638.04033 W per sq. meter
