(v) εEb .

Analysis : (i) The spectral emissive power at λ = 1.2 µm :
The Planck’s distribution law, eqn. (12.19)
C1
Ebλ =
λ5[exp(C2 /λT )–1]
where C1 = 3.742 × 108W .µm4 /m2
C2 = 1.438 × 104 µm.K.
Substituting the values,
3.742×108
Ebλ = 4
(1.2)5 ×[exp( 1.438×10
1.2×2923 )]
= 2.53 × 106 W /m2 .µm.
(ii) The wavelength at which the emissive power is maximum :
Using Wien’s displacement law, eqn.(12.20)
λmax T = 2897.6µm.K
2897.6
λmax =
2923 = 0.9913µm.
(iii) Maximum spectral emissive power, by eqn.(12.21)
Ebλmax = 12.87 × 10–10 T 5 W /m2 .µm
= 12.87 × 10–10 × (2923)5
= 2.746 × 108 W /m2 .µm.
(iv) Total emissive power
Eb = ∫ 0∞ Ebλ dλ = σT 4
= 5.67 × 10–8 × (2923)4
= 4.139 × 106 W /m2 .
(v) Total emissive power with ε = 0.9
E = εEb = εσT 4
= 0.9 × 4.139 × 106
= 3.725 × 106 W /m2 .
