Answer:

the total radiant heat power

Step-by-step explanation:

The Stefan-Boltzmann law states that the total radiant heat power emitted from a surface is proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature.


E=\sigma T^(4)

where E is the power from a unit area, T is the absolute temperature and the Greek letter sigma (σ) representing the constant of proportionality, called the Stefan-Boltzmann constant. In SI units, this constant has the value
5.670374419 * 10^(-8)  (W)/(m^(2) K^(4) ).

The law applies only to blackbodies, theoretical surfaces that absorb all incident heat radiation.
