  1. Calculate the followings for an industrial furnace in the form of a black body at 25000

(i) Monochromatic emissive power at 1.2 μm, apply Planck’s Law Eλb = 2.014 x 1012 W/m2 

(ii) Wavelength at which emission is maximum, using    λmT = 2898, λm = 1.045 μm

  • Maximum spectral (monochromatic)emissive power, (Eλb)max = 1.285 x 10-5T5 W/m2 per m = 2.1 x 1012 W/m2 per m

  • Total emissive power—Use Stefan’s Boltzmann’s Law, Eb = σ T4 = 3.352 x 106 W/m2

  • Total emissive power if the furnace is a real body with emissivity as 0.9—Use Stefan’s Boltzmann’s Law for a grey body,

  • Egb = εσ T4 = 3.017 x 106 W/m2

  • The intensity of total radiation, I = Eb/= W/m2                  

  1. Assuming the Sun (dia=1.4 x 109m) as a black body having a surface temperature of 5750 K and a mean distance of 15 x 1010m from the earth, and earth dia = 12.8 x 106m. Calculate the followings:

(i) Total energy emitted by the sun=q.=Eb A = Eb x  r 2sun = 3.816 x 1026   W

(ii) Emission received per m2 just outside the atmosphere of the earth, given distance, d = 1.5 x 1010m, area 4d2 ,

(v) Wavelength at which emission is maximum, using    λmT = 2898, λm

  • Maximum spectral (monochromatic)emissive power, (Eλb)max = 1.285 x 10-5T5 W/m2 per m

  • Total emissive power if the furnace is a real body with emissivity as 0.9—Use Stefan’s Boltzmann’s Law for a grey body,

  • Egb = εσ T4 

  • The intensity of total radiation, I = Eb/= W/m2
