This Report proposes nomenclature and symbols which it recommends should be generally adopted when identifying certain concepts used in radiation transfer calculations. In making the proposals, consideration has been given to the terminology and symbols used in radiant heat transfer problems, as well as to those already used by workers concerned with interreflected light calculations.
The Report was prepared for the Fundamental Principles of Lighting Sub-Committee of the National Illumination Committee of Great Britain, by a panel comprising H. E. Bellchambers, P. Petherbridge and R. O. Phillips.
