Q1:

For infinite parallel planes having emis-sivities ε1 & ε2, the interchange factor for radiation from surface 1 to surface 2 is given by

A (ε1 + ε2)/ε1.ε2

B ε1.ε2/(ε1 + ε2 - ε1.ε2)

C ε1.ε2

D ε1 + ε2

ANS:B - ε1.ε2/(ε1 + ε2 - ε1.ε2)

The interchange factor for radiation from surface 1 to surface 2 between two infinite parallel planes with emissivities ε1​ and ε2​ is given by: 2F12​=ε1​+ε2​−ε1​ε2​ε1​ε2​​ Therefore, the correct choice is: ε1​+ε2​−ε1​ε2​ε1​ε2​​
