1 Fundamental Concepts of Radiation -Basic Principles and Definitions- Chapter 1 Sections 1.1 through 1.3

2 1.1 Fundamental Concepts Attention is focused on thermal radiation, whose origins are associated with emission from matter at an absolute temperature T > 0. Emission is due to oscillations and transitions of the many electrons that comprise matter, which are, in turn, sustained by the thermal energy of the matter. Emission corresponds to heat transfer from the matter and hence to a reduction in thermal energy stored by the matter. Absorption results in heat transfer to the matter and hence an increase in thermal energy stored by the matter.

3 Consider a solid of temperature T s in an evacuated enclosure whose walls are at a fixed temperature T : What changes occur if T > T? Why? s sur sur What changes occur if T s < T sur? Why?

4 Emission from a gas or a semitransparent solid / liquid is a volumetric phenomenon. Emission from an opaque solid / liquid is a surface phenomenon. For an opaque solid or liquid, emission originates from atoms and molecules within 1 µm of the surface.

5 The dual nature of radiation: In some cases, the physical manifestations of radiation may be explained by viewing it as particles (aka photons or quanta). In other cases, radiation behaves as an electromagnetic wave. In all cases, radiation is characterized by a wavelength λ and frequency ν, which are related through the speed at which radiation propagates in the medium of interest: λ = c ν For propagation in a vacuum, c = c o =. x m/s

6 The Electromagnetic Spectrum Thermal radiation is confined to the infrared, visible and ultraviolet regions of the spectrum 01. < λ < 100µ m. ( )

7 The amount of radiation emitted by an opaque surface varies with wavelength, and we may speak of the spectral distribution over all wavelengths or of monochromatic/spectral components associated with particular wavelengths.

8 1. Directional Considerations and the Concept of Radiation Intensity Radiation emitted by a surface will be in all directions associated with a hypothetical hemisphere about the surface and is characterized by a directional distribution. Direction may be represented in a spherical coordinate system characterized by the zenith or polar angle θ and the azimuthal angle. φ

9 The amount of radiation emitted from a surface, da 1, and propagating in a particular direction, θ, φ, is quantified in terms of a differential solid angle (dω) associated with the direction. dω da n r dan unit element of surface on a hypothetical sphere and normal to the θ, φ direction.

10 dan r d d = sinθ θ φ The solid angle ω has units of steradians (sr). da dω n = sinθ dθ dφ r The solid angle associated with a complete hemisphere ( 半球 ) is π π / sin ωhemi = 0 0 θ dθ dφ = π (unit: sr)

11 Spectral Intensity: A quantity used to specify the radiant heat flux within a unit solid angle about a prescribed direction and within a unit wavelength interval wavelength ( W/m sr µ m ). ( W/m ) ( W/m sr) about a prescribed The spectral intensity associated with emission from a I λ, e 1 surface element in the solid angle dω about θ, φ and the wavelength interval dλ about λ is defined as: da I λ e ( λθφ),,, dq da θ dω dλ ( cos ) 1

12 The rationale for defining the radiation flux in terms of the projected surface area ( da1 cosθ ) stems from the existence of surfaces for which, to a good approximation, I λ,e is independent of direction. Such surfaces are termed diffuse, and the radiation is said to be isotropic ( 等方向性 ).

13 The projected area is how da would appear if observed along θ, φ. What is the projected area for θ = 0? What is the projected area for θ = π /? 1 The spectral heat rate and heat flux associated with emission from are, respectively, da 1 dq dqλ spetral heat rate = = Iλ, e ( λ, θφ, ) da1 cos θdω (1.6) dλ

14 dqλ dq λ da1 (1.7) = I λ, θφ, cos θdω= I λθφ,, cosθ sinθ dθdφ ( ) ( ) λ, e λ, e π π ( ) = ( ) = /, (,, ) cos sin E λ q λ I λ θ φ θ θ dθ dφ λ λ 0 0 λ e

18 Relation of Intensity to Emissive Power, Irradiation, and Radiosity The spectral emissive power emission over all possible directions. W/m ( µ m) corresponds to spectral π π ( ) = /, (,, ) cos sin E λ I λθφ θ θdθdφ λ 0 0 λ e ( W/m ) The total emissive power corresponds to emission over all directions and wavelengths. E = 0 Eλ ( λ) dλ For a diffuse surface (Ι λ,e = not a function of θ and φ ), emission is isotropic and E λ πi λ λ E π I e ( ) ( ) = λ, e, = ( ) where Ie = 0 Ie λ λ dλ = total intensity

19 The spectral intensity of radiation incident on a surface, I λ,i, is defined in terms of the unit solid angle about the direction of incidence, the wavelength interval dλ about λ, and the projected area of the receiving surface, cos θ. da1 The spectral irradiation ( W/m µ m) is then: π π ( ) = /, (,, ) cos sin G λ I λθφ θ θdθdφ λ 0 0 λ i and the total irradiation ( ) W/m is G = G ( ) d 0 λ λ λ How may and G be expressed if the incident radiation is diffuse? G λ

20 The radiosity of an opaque surface accounts for all of the radiation leaving the surface in all directions and may include contributions from both reflection and emission. I λ + With e rdesignating the spectral intensity associated with radiation emitted by the surface and the reflection of incident radiation, the spectral radiosity W/m µ m is:, ( ) π π ( ) = /, (,, ) cos sin J λ I λθφ θ θdθdφ λ 0 0 λ e+ r and the total radiosity ( ) J = 0 Jλ λ dλ W/m is: ( ) How may and J J λ be expressed if the surface emits and reflects diffusely?

22 The Blackbody 1.3 Blackbody Radiation An idealization providing limits on radiation emission and absorption by matter. For a prescribed temperature and wavelength, no surface can emit more radiation than a blackbody: the ideal emitter. A blackbody is a diffuse emitter. A blackbody absorbs all incident radiation: the ideal absorber. The Isothermal Cavity (Hohlraum).

23 (a) After multiple reflections, virtually all radiation entering the cavity is absorbed. (b) Emission from the aperture is the maximum possible emission achievable for the temperature associated with the cavity and is diffuse. (c) The cumulative effect of radiation emission from and reflection off the cavity wall is to provide diffuse irradiation corresponding to emission from a blackbody ( Gλ = Eλ, b ) for any surface in the cavity. Does this condition depend on whether the cavity surface is highly reflecting or absorbing?

24 The Spectral (Planck) Distribution of Blackbody Radiation The blackbody spectral intensity [Planck, 1901]: hc I T m sr o ( λ, ) = Units: W/m -µ - λ, b 5 λ [exp( hc / λκt ) 1] o 34 where h = Planck constant = ( J s) κ c o 3 = Boltzmann constant= ( J / K) speed of light in vacuum = ( m/ s) = 8 The spectral distribution of the blackbody emissive power (determined theoretically and confirmed experimentally) is ( λ, ) π ( λ, ) E T = I T = λ, b λ, b Unit: W/m - µ m π hco C1 = 5 5 λ [ exp( hco / λκt ) 1] λ exp ( C / λt ) 1 First radiation constant: Second radiation constant: C 1 = 374. x 10 W µ m / m 4 C = x 10 µ m K 8 4

25 E λ, b varies continuously with λ and increases with T. The distribution is characterized by a maximum for which λ max is given by Wien s displacement law: λ T = C 3 = 898 µ m K The fractional amount of total blackbody emission appearing at lower wavelengths increases with increasing T. max

26 The Stefan-Boltzmann Law and Band Emission The total emissive power of a blackbody is obtained by integrating the Planck distribution over all possible wavelengths. 4 Eb = Ib = 0 Eλ bd = T Stefan Boltzmann law Units: W/m π λ σ, ( - ) T σ = x10 W/m K 8 4 the Stefan-Boltzmann constant ( 宇宙常數 )

27 The fraction of total blackbody emission that is in a prescribed wavelength interval or band λ < λ < λ is ( ) λ, b o λ, b = = 1 4 F F F ( λ λ ) ( λ ) ( λ ) where, in general, λ E dλ E dλ σt λ λ E dλ F f T σt 0 λ, b ( 0 λ ) = = 4 ( λ ) and numerical results are given in Table 1.1 λ 1 Τ λ Τ

28 hc I T m sr o ( λ, ) = Units: W/m -µ - λ, b 5 λ [exp( hc / λκt ) 1] o Hence, I ( λ, T) hc λ, b 5 T o = 5 ( T) [exp( hc / o T) 1] σ λ κλ I ( λ, T) λ, b 給予一個 ( λt) 值即會得到一個值 5 σ T

29 = / Maximum Ι λ,β

30 Note ability to readily determine I λ,b and its relation to the maximum intensity from the 3 rd and 4 th columns, respectively. If emission from the sun may be approximated as that from a blackbody at 5800 K, at what wavelength does peak emission occur? Would you expect radiation emitted by a blackbody at 800 K to be discernible ( 辨識 ) by the naked eye? As the temperature of a blackbody is increased, what color would be the first to be discerned ( 辨識 ) by the naked eye? 紅光?

36 Problem 1.6: Evaluation of total solar irradiation at the earth s surface from knowledge of the direct and diffuse components of the incident radiation. 垂直於表面之 irradiation 直射 漫射 KNOWN: Flux and intensity of direct and diffuse components, respectively, of solar irradiation. FIND: Total irradiation.

37 SCHEMATIC: ANALYSIS: Since the irradiation is based on the actual surface area, the contribution due to the direct solar radiation is Gdir = qdir cos θ. For the contribution due to the diffuse radiation Gdif = π I dif. Hence G = Gdir + Gdif = qdir cosθ + π Idif

38 or G = 1000 W / m π sr 70 W / m sr G = ( ) W / m G = 1086 W / m COMMENTS: Although a diffuse approximation is often made for the non-direct component of solar radiation, the actual directional distribution deviates from this condition, providing larger intensities at angles close to the direct beam.

39 Problem 1.0: Determination of the sun s emissive power, temperature and wavelength of maximum emission, as well as the earth s temperature, from knowledge of the sun/earth geometry and the solar flux at the outer edge of the earth s atmosphere. KNOWN: Solar flux at outer edge of earth s atmosphere, 1353 W/m. FIND: (a) Emissive power of sun, (b) Surface temperature of sun, (c) Wavelength of maximum solar emission, (d) Earth equilibrium temperature. SCHEMATIC:

40 ASSUMPTIONS: (1) Sun and earth emit as blackbodies, () No attenuation of solar radiation enroute to earth, (3) Earth atmosphere has no effect on earth energy balance. ANALYSIS: (a) Applying conservation of energy to the solar energy crossing two concentric spheres, one having the radius of the sun and the other having the radial distance from the edge of the earth s atmosphere to the center of the sun, it follows that ( ) De Es πds = 4π Rs e q s Hence 略 ( 11 7 ) m m 1353 W / m E 7 s = = W/m. ( m) (b) From the Stefan-Boltzmann law, the temperature of the sun is 1/4 7 1/4 Es W / m Ts = 5774 K. σ = = W / m K 4 (c) From Wien s displacement law, the wavelength of maximum emission is C3 898µ m K λ max = = = 0.50 µ m. T 5774 K

41 (d) From an energy balance on the earth s surface q s ( π ) = ( π ) Ee De qs D e /4. 球體表面積 = 4πr 地球發射之熱能 = 地球接收之熱能 E e = σ(t e ) 4 Hence, from the Stefan-Boltzmann law, 1/4 1/4 q S 1353 W / m Te = = = 78 K. 4σ W/m K 4 COMMENTS: The average earth temperature is higher than 78 K due to the shielding effect of the earth s atmosphere (transparent to solar radiation but not to longer wavelength earth emission). 溫室效應
