Sentences with phrase «radiative heating»

"Radiative heating" refers to the process of warming objects or substances through the emission and absorption of radiation. It involves the transfer of heat energy in the form of electromagnetic waves, such as sunlight or infrared radiation, which causes the temperature to rise. Full definition
The discussion about radiative heat transfer shows how temperature differences regulate the amount of energy transferred between objects.
Of course, it also reduces radiative heat losses too.
Since beginning operations, ARM has made significant contributions to improving climate prediction models as they represent radiative heat transfer, aerosol processes, and cloud processes.
The actual radiative heat transfer is, ideally, proportional to the fourth power of the temperature, and the analysis must be based on this.
But predicting such radiative heat transfer between extremely close objects has proven elusive for the past 50 years.
To do so, they used an existing model that describes radiative heat transfer as electrical currents flowing within two objects.
Do you know of any laboratory evidence of the ability of trace CO2 to trap radiative heat somehow avoiding convection?
GHGs direct some of the upward radiative heat flux back down towards the surface, which means that when GHG concentrations are increased other heat fluxs (e.g. convection) must increase to compensate.
Microscopically thin, transparent metal or metallic oxide layers deposited on a glass surface suppress radiative heat flow and reflect interior infrared energy (heat) back to the inside, reducing heat loss through the glass.
Mr. Steele writes on the 21st of April 2012 at 1:29 pm: «CO2 radiative heating only contributed a trivial amount of warming...
Lebsock M. D., T. S. L'Ecuyer and R. Pincus (November 2017): An Observational View of Relationships Between Moisture Aggregation, Cloud, and Radiative Heating Profiles.
The climate response depends not only upon the TOA forcing, but its difference with respect to the surface value, which represents radiative heating within the atmosphere.
If one wishes to debunk any likelihood of a «powerful back radiative heating» greenhouse effect one need go no further than a comparison of thermal conductivities.
(hint: because vacuum insulates perfectly for everything except radiative heat loss)
I would have torn my hair out long ago and the insides of my computer would now be engaging with radiative heat transfer with the troposphere from their scattered locations around my lawn.
«Significant increasing trends in DSR [DownwardSurface Radiation] and net DSR fluxes were found, equal to 4.1 and 3.7 Wm ⁻², respectively, over the 1984 - 2000 period (equivalent to 2.4 and 2.2 Wm ⁻² per decade), indicating an increasing surface solar radiative heating.
