Formulas

Thermal Conductivity and Conduction Formula

Q = K·A·(Tₕ - Tᶜ)·t / d

Rate of heat flow = dQ/dt = K·A·(Tₕ - Tᶜ) / d

Radiation Laws

λₘ · T = 2.884 × 10⁻³ m·K (Wien's Displacement Law)

E = A·e·σ·T⁴ (Stefan-Boltzmann Law)

E_net = A·e·σ·(T₁⁴ - T₂⁴)

Kirchhoff's Law: eλ / aλ = Eλ (constant for all bodies at same T)

Solar Energy and Solar Constant

Q = 2πRₑ² × C

E = (r/R)² · σT⁴ (Solar constant at distance R)

E'/E = (R/R')² (Ratio of solar constants)
