Popis: This paper describes the development of an absorption calorimeter with a fused-quartz window and discusses its use in connection with a series of boiler tests. The results of these tests are compared with the Hudson-Orrok formula and the Wohlenberg method of computing radiation heat transfer. A tentative empirical equation is given for computing radiation intensities, taking into account the dirtiness of the cold surfaces. Tentative formulas are also given for computing the average heat transfer by radiation in boiler furnaces.
