to calculate both the distribution of wavelength (spectral distribution) and the peak wavelengths of a given emitter, operating at a given temperature. Characteristics of Infrared.... The electromagnetic spectrum describes the various types of electromagnetic energy based on wavelength. [ view larger diagram ] By describing an infrared emitter as long wave..., medium wave, or short wave, one can quickly determine the approximate temperature range an emitter is operating, as well as an approximate wavelength range measured in microns. Since...

, and chlorofluorocarbons. Infrared energy is absorbed by these gasses which reduces the energy to your product, so why would you want your IR emitter to produce them. With recent...
