Radiant exitance, also known as radiant emittance, refers to the amount of radiant energy that is emitted per unit area from a surface into the surrounding environment. It is typically measured in watts per square meter (W/m²). This quantity is important in fields such as thermodynamics, astrophysics, and engineering, particularly when analyzing heat transfer, radiative properties of materials, and thermal radiation.
