Radiative heat exchange of spherical particles with plates of a metal and an insulator

Radiative heat exchange of a stationary spherical particle with a plate has been investigated in terms of fluctuation electrodynamics. The cases of metal and insulator materials (gold and silicon dioxide) of particles and plates have been numerically analyzed. Several theoretical models of thermal conductance have been compared and the results have been juxtaposed with the available experimental data.
