Radiative heat transfer is the transfer of heat from one body to another by the emission and absorption of radiationDifferent bodies may emit different amounts of radiation per unit surface area.A blackbody emits the maximum amount of radiation by a surface at a given temperature.It is an idealized body idealized body to serve as a standard to serve as a standard against which the radiative against which the radiative properties of real surfaces may be compared.A blackbody is a perfect emitter and absorber of radiation.A blackbody absorbs all incident radiation, regardless of wavelength and direction.

RADIATION INTENSITY
Radiation is emitted by all parts of a plane surface in all directions into the hemisphere above the surface, and the directional distribution of emitted (or incident) radiation is usually not uniform.
we need a quantity that describes the magnitude of radiation emitted (or incident) in a specified direction in space.
This quantity is radiation intensity, denoted by I.

View factor is a purely geometric quantity and is independent of the surface properties and temperature.
It is also called the shape factor, configuration factor, and angle factor.
The view factor based on the assumption that the surfaces are diffuse emitters and diffuse reflectors is called the diffuse view factor, and the view factor based on the assumption that the surfaces are diffuse emitters but specular reflectors is called the specular view factor.

The view factor has proven to be very useful in radiation analysis because it allows us to express the fraction of radiation leaving a surface that strikes another surface in terms of the orientation of these two surfaces relative to each other.
The underlying assumption in this process is that the radiation a surface receives from a source is directly proportional to the angle the surface subtends when viewed from the source.
This would be the case only if the radiation coming off the source is uniform in all directions throughout its surface and the medium between the surfaces does not absorb, emit, or scatter radiation.
That is, it is the case when the surfaces are isothermal and diffuse emitters and reflectors and the surfaces are separated by a nonparticipating medium such as a vacuum or air.
View factors for hundreds of common geometries are evaluated and the results are given in analytical, graphical, and tabular form.

Consider a 4-m x 4-m x 4-m cubical furnace whose floor and ceiling are black and whose side surfaces are reradiating. The floor and ceiling of the furnace are maintained at temperature 500 K and 1100 K, respectively. Determine the net rate of radiation heat transfer between the floor and the ceiling of the furnace.

RADIATION EFFECT ON TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS
The last term in the equation is due to the radiation effect and represents the radiation correction.
The radiation correction term is most significant when the convection heat transfer coefficient is small and the emissivity of the surface of the sensor is large.
Therefore, the sensor should be coated with a material of high reflectivity (low emissivity) to reduce the radiation effect.
