The Pseudo Radiation Energy Amplifier

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the Pseudo Radiation Energy Amplifier (PREA) as proposed by Ahmed Boucenna, which suggests that the Earth behaves as a gray body that amplifies incoming solar radiation. The paper indicates that the Earth receives 342 W/m² from the sun while emitting 599 kW/m², leading to a discrepancy in the estimated mean ground temperature of 15 °C versus the calculated -18 °C based on black body radiation theory. This concept challenges traditional views on energy balance and climate control, emphasizing the importance of solar and terrestrial radiation reflection coefficients in understanding Earth's climate dynamics.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of black body radiation theory

The Pseudo Radiation Energy Amplifier
(PREA) and the mean earth’s ground
temperature

………………………………………………………………...
From the radiation balance diagram1 illustrating
the IPCC reports2 one can estimate the power
received by Earth from the sun at Pin = 342 W/m2
and the power consumed, remitted and reflected by
the Earth and its atmosphere at Pout = 599 kW/m2. It
seems that the Earth emits more power than it
receives. The earth’s ground mean temperature is
estimated at 15 °C. A calculation based on the black
body radiation theory gives an earth’s ground mean
temperature of the order of -18 °C which is much
lower than 15 °C. The important gap between these
calculated and estimated temperature mean values
requires an explanation. Here we show that a gray
body separated from vacuum by an interface and
submitted to outside incident radiation can behave
like a Pseudo Radiation Energy Amplifier. The
Earth which is a gray body separated from the
space by an interface, behaves like a Pseudo
Radiation Energy Amplifier. The balance of the
energy exchanged between Earth and outer space is
reconsidered and the 15 °C Earth’s ground
temperature mean value is then derived. Our result
revives the discussion on the parameters that
control the Earth climate. The solar and terrestrial
radiation reflection coefficients by the Earth and its
atmosphere acquire a privileged role. The Pseudo
Radiation Energy Amplifier can be a starting point
to improve the energy use. The materials having the
adequate reflection coefficients will be indicated for
specific applications.-----------------------------,

I am not sure i understand this.

Sounds strange. Or is this person re-discovering the greenhouse effect ?
 


It appears to me that he creates energy
