Heat and Mass Transfer
When α is absorptivity, ρ is reflectivity and τ is transmissivity, then for a diathermanous body,

α = 1, ρ = 0 and τ = 0
α + ρ = 1 and τ = 0
α = 0, ρ = 1 and τ = 0
α = 0, ρ = 0 and τ = 1

Heat and Mass Transfer
According to Prevost theory of heat exchange

All bodies above absolute zero emit radiation
It is impossible to transfer heat from low temperature source to t high temperature source
Heat transfer in most of the cases takes place by combination of conduction, convection and radiation
Heat transfer by radiation requires no medium
