Jeff.B Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 Nice one, Pickles!Their model uses the Stefan-Boltzmann law and assumes a surface temp of 100 degrees C, and perfect black body characteristics. They multiplied this output by two because - they say - the panel emitts to the wall behind it, doubling the effect.Incidentally - you don't happen to be the Beara Pickles from Devon - now in 87?Cheers Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickles Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 [quote user="Chancer"]There is one way in which you could in fact benefit from this soi disant efficiency, you would need to stand naked in front of the heater wearing thick soled slippers (cos the floor will not get warm) and slowly turn around to expose your whole body to the heat.The problem is that you would look like a doner kebab, which is actually the best application of this type of heater.[/quote]Looking at the heat output of the Redwell panels, you'd never get hot enough to look like a doner kebab ... they really are weedy.RegardsPickles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
