Abstract In this paper the properties of ideal thermal radiators are tabulated in a generalized form for use with ideal sources at any temperature. These tables are presented in a form which simplifies the computation of total radiant properties from spectral properties for nonideal sources and receivers, and examples of their utilization are included. The values of the thermal-radiation constants utilized in the preparation of the tables were the latest available. Conventional engineering units are employed in this paper, conversion to other systems of units being accomplished readily. These tables were prepared from the tables computed by the Federal Works Agency, Work Projects Administration, after converting to engineering units and correcting for the revised values of the radiation constants.
