Spectrally Selective Surfaces for Heating and Cooling Applications

  • Conference paper
Physics and Technology of Solar Energy

Abstract

Heat transfer occurs via radiation, conduction and convection. When the radiative exchange is significant- which holds true for many important applications — one can achieve energy efficiency by exploiting surfaces with spectral selectivity. This term is taken to imply that the radiative properties (i.e. the absorptance A, emittance E, reflectance R, and transmittance T) are qualitatively different within different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. Spectral selectivity is often obtained by use of coatings onto substrates which are either transparent or opaque metallic.
