Infrarood verwarming: ervaringen en info van experts

Sorry maar ik dat heb je fout. infrarode straling is weldegelijk een elektromagnetische straling.
waar ik naar op zoek ben is hoe de panelen gemaakt worden en hoe ze precies in deze bandbreedte stralen. patenten en fabricage processen.


what is an electromagnetic wave?
all materials are made up of atoms in motion. as heat energy is absorbed by
an object, the vibrational motion of its atoms increases. temperature, or heat,
is a measurement of the severity of this vibrational motion. absolute
zero (-460°f) is the temperature at which there is no vibrational motion in an
object’s atom.
absolute temperature in °r = °f + 460
absolute temperature in k = °c + 273
atoms contain positive (protons) and negative (electrons) electrically charged
particles. a charged particle creates a field around itself called an electric
field. when a charged particle is moved, it generates a magnetic field. atoms
of a hot object vibrate violently. the charged particles that make up the atom
are being accelerated back and forth as the “hot” atom oscillates. each time
the atom moves, the electric and magnetic fields created by the charged
particles are disturbed. this disturbance in the electric and magnetic fields is
called an electromagnetic wave. hot objects radiate electromagnetic waves.
when an electromagnetic wave reaches a cool object, the changing electric
and magnetic fields of the electromagnetic wave will act on the charged
particles in the atoms of the cool object. the oscillating forces created will tug
at the atoms and cause the atoms of the cool object to begin to vibrate. as
the vibrational energy of its atoms goes up, so does the temperature of the
cool object. in this way, the atoms of the cool object absorb the energy of the
electromagnetic wave; a wave created by atoms in a hot object, some
distance away. energy is transferred from a hot object to a cool object without
physical contact and without a medium in between.
how do electromagnetic waves move?
electromagnetic waves are similar to other waves in that they are described
by their velocity, frequency, and wavelength. unlike waves on water or sound
waves in the air, electromagnetic waves do not need a medium to travel
through. they can travel through the vacuum of space.
the radiant energy from the sun travels through 93 million miles of space
before reaching the earth.
when the electromagnetic waves are absorbed by an object, they excite the
atoms of the object causing them to vibrate, thus raising the temperature.
though the technical term “electromagnetic wave” may sound strange to us,
the generic names for this type of energy transfer are very familiar.
• visible light
• microwave
• radio waves
• x-rays
• infrared radiation
the only difference between these different categories of electromagnetic
waves is their wavelength and frequency. they all travel at the same velocity,
commonly called the “speed of light.
