Question
Define emissive power and coefficient of emmision of a body.
Advertisements
Solution
Emissive power of a body at a given temperature is the quantity of radiant energy emitted by the body per unit time per unit surface area of the body at that temperature.
If ‘Q’ is the amount of radiant energy emitted, ‘A’ is the surface area of the body and ‘t’ is the time for which body radiates energy, then the emissive power is
`E=Q/(at)`
Coefficient of emission of a body is the ratio of the emissive power of the body at agiven temperature to the emissive power of a perfectly black body at the same temperature.
Coefficient of emission, `e=E/E_b`

An earthen pitcher loses 1 gm of water per minute due to evaporation. If the water equivalent of the pitcher is 0.5 kg and the pitcher contains 9.5 kg of water, calculate the time required for the water in a pitcher to cool to 28°C from the original temperature of 30°C. Neglect radiation effects. The latent heat of vaporization in this range of temperature is 580 Cal/gm and the specific heat of water is 1 Cal/gm°C.
