  • metals are generally better conductors

    C17-7 In a metal, free electrons unbound from their atom can quickly carry energy through the material system, this also makes them a good electrical conductivity, and resistivity of electromagnetic energy and current.

  • air is generally a good insulator

    C17-7 air that is at rest has a low thermal conduction coefficient.

  • ideal blackbody

    C17-7 As a way to abstract negligible facets, has emissivity of $1.0$. Emits natural light, and continuous spectra Canonical Hub: CANONICAL_INDEX.

  • heat radiation and absorption, thermal radiation

    C17-7 Two material system exchange heat through electromagnetic waves and light.

  • heat current

    C17-7 heat current is a physical quantities defined with energy per unit time (power) as$${dQ \over dt} \propto {{\text{W}} }= {{\text{J} \over \text{s} }}$$ Canonical Hub: CANONICAL_INDEX.

  • heat convection

    C17-7 When a material system with thermal energy is in fluid flow or motion its material can create a difference in temperature.

  • Navier-Stokes Equation

    C17-7 OutOfScope OpenQuestion Navier–Stokes existence and smoothness - Wikipedia Canonical Hub: CANONICAL_INDEX.

  • ideal reflector

    C17-7 As a way to abstract negligible facets, has emissivity of $0.0$. Canonical Hub: CANONICAL_INDEX.

  • emissivity

    C17-7 This is a coefficient in the Stefan-Boltzmann law for heat radiation and absorption, thermal radiation. For dark materials this is nearly $1$.

  • Stefan-Boltzmann law

    C17-7 formula for heat current in heat radiation and absorption, thermal radiation Where [$\sigma$ → When we read this, it is telling us that $lim_{t to infty} sigma_{text{measurement}} = 0 in a more natural way.] is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant $$H = {dQ \over dt} = Ae\sigma T^4$$ formula for ligh...

  • Stefan-Boltzmann constant

    C17-7 A 19thCentury part of the Stefan-Boltzmann law $$\sigma = 5.670400(40)\times 10^{-8} \text{W/m}^2 K^4$$ Canonical Hub: CANONICAL_INDEX.

  • monatomic

    C17-7 The property of a material system that each elementary entities is one atom of one type of element.

  • tungsten

    C17-7 Tungsten is a kind of material that has nearly the mass density of gold. It has emissivity of $e=0.350$ Canonical Hub: CANONICAL_INDEX.

  • Sir James Dewar

    C17-7 20thCentury physicists, invented the Dewar flask Canonical Hub: CANONICAL_INDEX.

  • temperature gradient

    C17-7 The temperature gradient is a physical quantities for a pair of material system in thermal contact, $$T_H - T_C \over L$$ …or as it appears as a vector quantity in Fourier’s law of thermal conduction, $$\nabla T$$ Canonical Hub: CANONICAL_INDEX.
