About the temperature of the thing under the influence of heat radiation of high intensity

Abstract

The study of the nature of radiant heat, refers to one of the young branches of physics. Broad scientific interest in the study of the invisible heat rays associated with the beginning of transformation in the metallurgical and chemical production of Europe ‐ is in industrialization. The use of steam machines and the associated interest to thermal phenomena influenced in development of the doctrine of the heat. For the first time the concept of thermal radiation is referred to Swedish chemist Carl C. Scheele in his Chemical treatise on air and fire (1777 y.o.) based on many observations. In 1779 y.o. in proceedings of the Pyrometry, German mathematician and physicist Johann Lambert, were described experiments, consistent with the observations Scheele and for the first time experimentally proved that heat rays propagate rectilinearly, and their intensity decreases inversely to the square of the distance. In 1790 y.o. Mark O. Pictet continued the experiment through experiments which were of great importance to determine the nature of radiant heat and the further development of her theory. It is now known that the thermal radiation is electromagnetic radiation emitted by the substance and emerging due to the energy of thermal motion of atoms and molecules, is one of the modes of transmission of heat energy, along with such species as the thermal conductivity and convection. Recently, the importance of the study of thermal radiation was connected with natural and technogenic processes, for example, fire risk assessment and the prevention of such emergencies [1, 2]. Open fire is a source of highly intensity thermal radiation. When it is flow of heat radiation significantly affects the rate of spread of fire. As a rule, in view of substantial economic costs, such studies are carried out on numerical models. Therefore, to obtain reliable experimental data in the study of heat sources, open flame of the surrounding objects is an important practical task. The aim of the present work is an experimental studying of an influence of distance from the source with the heat radiance density 130 · 10 3 Bt 2 on studying sample. The objectives of the study are to measure the temperature of the sample from different distances of the source of thermal radiation, as well as the definition of the analytical dependence of the temperature of the sample at different distances from the source of thermal radiation. A scheme of the experimental setup area on which the research was conducted in accordance with figure 1. The installation consists of a source of thermal radiation (T0), sample temperature sensor (T2), two sliding screens, and measuring the distance from the source of thermal radiation to the sample with temperature sensor.
