What is Emissivity?

Emissivity is defined as the ratio of the energy radiated from a material's surface to that radiated from a perfect emitter known as a blackbody, at the same temperature and wavelength and under the same viewing conditions. It is a dimensionless number between 0 (for a perfect reflector) and 1 (for a perfect emitter).

What is Interchange Factor?

Interchange factor is defined as the fraction of the energy leaving an isothermal area of a body that is incident upon the area of another body. It is also known as the Equivalent Emissivity.
