Studying the absorbance of some painted metals for the direct light


Abstract in English

In this research we studied and measured the response and absorbance for some metals (zinc, copper, iron, aluminum) which are exposed to the direct light and painted with black, which has a high absorbance and low emittance, and with different thicknesses (to obtain black bodies) with higher absorption. we took the measurement on the painted metals for each thickness of the paint in the laboratory first using tow lamps 30 watt and 100 watt to compare the absorption of these metals of the radiation from these two lamps with the absorption of the solar radiation and make sure that the absorption is similar of the two situations, then we took the measurements in AL- Kadmous Area which is 900m above sea level using direct solar radiation , and we found the relationship between the absorbance and the paint thickness.
