FAQ

What is the Radiative Heat Transfer?
Radiative Heat Transfer is the Heat transfer through radiation takes place in form of electromagnetic waves mainly in the infrared region. Radiative Heat Transfer is usually measured using the Watt per Square Meter for Heat Flux Density. Note that the value of Radiative Heat Transfer is always positive.
Can the Radiative Heat Transfer be negative?
No, the Radiative Heat Transfer, measured in Heat Flux Density cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Radiative Heat Transfer?
Radiative Heat Transfer 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 Radiative Heat Transfer can be measured.
