THE SPECTRAL REFLECTANCE AND TRANSMITTANCE OF STANDARD FABRICS FOR THERMAL RADIATION EFFECTS STUDIES
Abstract
The spectral reflectance and transmittance of standard fabrics for thermal radiation research, varying in color from undyed to deep black, were measured for radiation of wave lengths from 0.40 to 2.7 microns. The spectral characteristics of white sheeting, olive green 107 cotton sateen, and wind resistant poplin, shade 116, were also measured. The reflectance for carbon-arc radiation of the standard fabrics ranged from 0.63 for the undyed sateens to 0. 09 for the deep black. The carbon-arc radiant transmittances ranged from 0.12 for the undyed sateens to 0.00 for the dark gray, black and deep black. The radiant absorptances ranged from 0.25 from the undyed sateens to 0.91 for deep black. (Author)
