Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to
the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see

accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 9288:1989), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes are as follows:
— deleted the unit where two units existed (4.5, 4.6, 4.8, 4.9, 4.10, 5.3, 5.6, 6.2, 6.4);
— added the mean of d and d (7.15);

This document defines physical quantities and other terms in the field of thermal insulation relating to
heat transfer by radiation.
2 Normative references
There are no normative references in this document.
3 Terms and definitions (General terms)
ISO and IEC maintain terminology databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:

— IEC Electropedia: available at https:// www .electropedia .org/
3.1
thermal radiation
electromagnetic radiation emitted at the surface of an opaque body or inside an element of a semi-
transparent volume
Note 1 to entry: The thermal radiation is governed by the temperature of the emitting body and its radiative
characteristics. It is interesting from a thermal viewpoint when the wavelength range falls between 0, l μm and
100 μm (see Figure 1).

3.2
heat transfer by radiation
energy exchanged between bodies by means of electromagnetic waves
Note 1 to entry: These exchanges can occur when the bodies are separated from one another by vacuum or by a
transparent or a semi-transparent medium. To evaluate these radiation heat exchanges it is necessary to know
how opaque and semi-transparent bodies emit, absorb and transmit radiation as a function of their nature,
relative position and temperature.
3.3
total radiation
entire spectrum of thermal radiation
3.4
spectral radiation
monochromatic radiation
spectral interval centred on the wavelength λ of thermal radiation, according to spectral distribution
3.5
hemispherical radiation
all directions of thermal radiation along which a surface element can emit or receive radiation,
according to spatial distribution (directional)

3.6
directional radiation
thermal radiation whose directions of propagation are defined by a solid angle around the defined
direction, according to spatial distribution
3.7
opaque medium
medium, which does not transmit any fraction of the incident radiation
Note 1 to entry: The absorption, emission (5.1) and reflection of radiation can be handled as surface phenomena
3.8
semi-transparent medium
medium, in which the incident radiation is progressively attenuated inside the material by absorption
or scattering, or both
Note 1 to entry: The absorption, scattering and emission (5.1) of radiation are bulk (volume) phenomena.
Note 2 to entry: The radiative properties of an opaque or semi-transparent medium are generally a function of
the spectral and directional distribution of incident radiation and of the temperature of the medium.
Note 3 to entry: Thermal insulating materials are generally semi-transparent media.
4 Terms related to surfaces either receiving, transferring or emitting a thermal
radiation

space where radiation exists (see Figure 3), moreover their values are independent of the particular surface used
to define them. Sources which radiate with constant L (see 4.3) are called isotropic or diffuse.

Note 5 to entry: Intensities are oriented quantities too, but belong to a surface (see Figure 2).
Note 6 to entry: Radiant flows (total or spectral) are not oriented quantities and belong to a surface.

3 Terms and definitions
3.1
thermal radiation
Electromagnetic radiation emitted at the surface of an opaque body or inside an element of a semi-
transparent volume.
The thermal radiation is governed by the temperature of the emitting body and its radiative
characteristics. It is interesting from a thermal viewpoint when the wavelength range falls between 0, l
μm and 100 μm (see figure 1).

3.2
heat transfer by radiation
Energy exchanges between bodies (apart from one another) by means of electromagnetic waves.
These exchanges can occur when the bodies are separated from one another by vacuum or by a
transparent or a semi-transparent medium. To evaluate these radiation heat exchanges it is necessary to
know how opaque and semi-transparent bodies emit, absorb and transmit radiation as a function of their
nature, relative position and temperature.
3.3
Classification of the physical terms associated with thermal radiation
Physical terms associated with thermal radiation are classified according to two criteria:
— spectral distribution
— spatial distribution (directional) of the radiation.
These physical terms are:
total, if they are related to the entire spectrum of thermal radiation (this designation can be considered
as implicit);
spectral or monochromatic, if they are related to a spectral interval centred on the wavelength A;
hemispherical, if they are related to all directions along which a surface element can emit or receive
radiation;
directional, if they are related to the directions of propagation defined by a solid angle around the defined
direction.
3.4
Classification of materials in relation with radiative transfer
Opaque medium: Medium which does not transmit any fraction of the incident radiation.
The absorption, emission, reflection of radiation can be handled as surface phenomena.
Semi-transparent medium: Medium in which the incident radiation is progressively attenuated inside the
material by absorption or scattering, or both.
The absorption, scattering and emission of radiation are bulk (volume) phenomena.
The radiative properties of an opaque or semi-transparent medium are generally a function of the
spectral and directional distribution of incident radiation and of the temperature of the medium.
Note 1 to entry: Thermal insulating materials are generally semi-transparent media.

2 Total radiance and spectral radiance are oriented quantities (vectors) defined in each point of space where
radiation exists (see figure 3), moreover their values are independent of the particular surface used to define them.
Sources which radiate with constant 𝐿 (see 4.3) are called isotropic or diffuse.
Ω
Intensities are again oriented quantities but belong to a surface (see figure 2).
Radiant flows (total or spectral) are not oriented quantities and belong to a surface.

The black body is one that absorbs all the incident radiation for all wavelengths, directions and
polarizations.
At a given temperature, for each wavelength it emits the maximum thermal energy (maximum spectral
excitance). For this reason and because rigorous laws define its emission, the emission of real bodies is
compared with that of the black body.
