Schwarzschild's equation for radiative transfer
text:
In the study of heat transfer, Schwarzschild's equation is used to calculate radiative transfer through a medium in local thermodynamic equilibrium that both absorbs and emits radiation. The incremental change in spectral intensity, at a given wavelength as radiation travels an incremental distance (ds) through a non-scattering medium is given by: d I λ = n σ λ B λ d s − n σ λ I λ d s = n σ λ [ B λ − I λ ] d s where
- n is the number density of absorbing/emitting molecules
- σλ is their abs
