Explain the construction and working of Ferry’s black body.
Advertisements
उत्तर
Construction:
- Ferry’s perfectly blackbody consists of a double-walled hollow sphere having a tiny hole or aperture, through which radiant heat can enter.
- The space between the walls is evacuated and the outer surface of the sphere is silvered.
- The inner surface of a sphere is coated with lampblack.
- There is a conical projection on the inner surface of the sphere opposite the aperture. The projection ensures that a ray travelling along the axis of the aperture is not incident normally on the surface and is therefore not reflected back along the same path.
Working:
- A heat ray entering the sphere through the aperture suffers multiple reflections and is almost completely absorbed inside. (about 98% of heat is absorbed.)
- Thus, the aperture behaves like a perfect blackbody.
- The effective area of a perfect blackbody is equal to the area of the aperture.
- This gives a greater effective area as a perfect black body.
- Similar working can be achieved using a cavity radiator that consists of a block of material with an internal cavity.
