Talk:Radiation heat transfer

Untitled
This article is a school project for a heat transfer class. The idea is to share some of the class topics and increase the availability the articles in wikipedia for future engineering students.

This article is no longer just a school project. It is open for anyone to edit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.195.68.121 (talk) 15:24, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

opaque bodies
The statement: "For engineering purposes all materials are thick enough that they can be considered opaque reducing equation 1 to:" is not true. Many important engineering materials e.g. soda-lime-silica (window/bottle) glass is significantly transparent to solar radiation. Therefore, I have changed this statement to:"For opaque bodies, Equation 1 reduces to:". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.195.68.121 (talk) 15:22, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
