Radiant Heat across a distance
Radiant Heat across a distance
(OP)
I have a radiant heater that will hang from the ceiling in a gym (angled at 45 degrees in towards the center). I would like to put a net, that i know the particular combustion temperature for, as close as possible to the radiant heat source (for space maximization purposes).
Is there an appropriate way to theoretically calculate the closest I can hang the net? I know the specifications of the radiant heat source as well.

I'm assuming gas-fired radiant, not hydronic radiant?

Would it matter which? I know the Q(Btu/hr) and the emissivity of the material of the radiant heat source. As well as the delta T across the minimum distance to the net.

Yeah, a heat balance could be performed but it will be full of holes.
