Here is how the Diffuse Radiosity equation looks like.

665.4 = ((0.95 \cdot 700) + (0.5 \cdot 0.8))

665.4W/m² = ((0.95 \cdot 700W/m²) + (0.5 \cdot 0.8W/m²))

665.4 = ((0.95 \cdot 700) + (0.5 \cdot 0.8))

Diffuse Radiosity Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Diffuse Radiosity?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

J D = ((ε \cdot E b) + (ρ D \cdot G))

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

J D = ((0.95 \cdot 700W/m²) + (0.5 \cdot 0.8W/m²))

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

J D = ((0.95 \cdot 700) + (0.5 \cdot 0.8))

LAST Step Evaluate

∴

J D = 665.4W/m²

Variables

Diffuse Radiosity

Diffuse Radiosity represents the rate at which radiation energy leaves a unit area of a surface in all directions.

Symbol: J_D

Measurement: Heat Flux DensityUnit: W/m²

Note: Value can be positive or negative.

Formulas to find Diffuse Radiosity

Emissivity

Emissivity is the ability of an object to emit infrared energy. Emissivity can have a value from 0 (shiny mirror) to 1.0 (blackbody). Most organic or oxidized surfaces have emissivity close to 0.95.

Symbol: ε

Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless

Note: Value should be between 0 to 1.

Formulas to find Emissivity

Emissive Power of Blackbody

Emissive Power of Blackbody is the energy of thermal radiation emitted in all directions per unit time from each unit area of a surface of blackbody at any given temperature.

Symbol: E_b

Measurement: Heat Flux DensityUnit: W/m²

Note: Value should be greater than 0.

Formulas to find Emissive Power of Blackbody

Diffuse Component of Reflectivity

Diffuse Component of Reflectivity is the reflection off rough surfaces such as clothing, paper, and the asphalt roadway.

Symbol: ρ_D

Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless

Note: Value should be between 0 to 1.

Irradiation

Irradiation is the radiation flux incident on a surface from all directions.

Symbol: G

Measurement: Heat Flux DensityUnit: W/m²

Note: Value should be greater than 0.

How to Evaluate Diffuse Radiosity?

Diffuse Radiosity evaluator uses Diffuse Radiosity = ((Emissivity*Emissive Power of Blackbody)+(Diffuse Component of Reflectivity*Irradiation)) to evaluate the Diffuse Radiosity, The Diffuse Radiosity formula is defined as the function of Emissivity, emissive power of blackbody, Diffuse Component of reflectivity and irradiation. Reflection off of smooth surfaces such as mirrors or a calm body of water leads to a type of reflection known as specular reflection. Reflection off of rough surfaces such as clothing, paper, and the asphalt roadway leads to a type of reflection known as diffuse reflection. Whether the surface is microscopically rough or smooth has a tremendous impact upon the subsequent reflection of a beam of light. Diffuse Radiosity is denoted by J_D symbol.

FAQs on Diffuse Radiosity

What is the formula to find Diffuse Radiosity?

The formula of Diffuse Radiosity is expressed as Diffuse Radiosity = ((Emissivity*Emissive Power of Blackbody)+(Diffuse Component of Reflectivity*Irradiation)). Here is an example- 665.4 = ((0.95*700)+(0.5*0.8)).

How to calculate Diffuse Radiosity?

With Emissivity (ε), Emissive Power of Blackbody (E_b), Diffuse Component of Reflectivity (ρ_D) & Irradiation (G) we can find Diffuse Radiosity using the formula - Diffuse Radiosity = ((Emissivity*Emissive Power of Blackbody)+(Diffuse Component of Reflectivity*Irradiation)).

Can the Diffuse Radiosity be negative?

Yes, the Diffuse Radiosity, measured in Heat Flux Density can be negative.

Which unit is used to measure Diffuse Radiosity?

Diffuse Radiosity is usually measured using the Watt per Square Meter[W/m²] for Heat Flux Density. Kilowatt per Square Meter[W/m²], Watt per Square Centimeter[W/m²], Watt per Square Inch[W/m²] are the few other units in which Diffuse Radiosity can be measured.
