Ευχαριστώ, Andras. Για το λόγο αυτό έδωσα και τον σύνδεσμο. Στην περίπτωσή μας χρειάζεται το emittance.
agree transphy : Mr. Mohay has a point. 'Emissivity' is a'constant' property of a material. 'Emittance' is a 'qauntity' depending on and proportional to other factors, one factor being the 'emissivity' of that material. Therfore, here 'emittance'

Reference:

The terms emittance and emissivity are often used interchangeably. There is, however, a technical distinction. Emissivity refers to the properties of a material; emittance to the properties of a particular object. In this latter sense, emissivity is only one component in determining emittance.
