Total Band Absorption Models for Absorbing-Emitting Liquids: CCl4
Predictions of the total band absorption are useful for describing the absorption process in calculations dealing with radiation interaction in absorbing-emitting liquids. Two two-parameter models, similar to the Elsasser and the statistical narrow band models used in gas radiation work, are developed for predicting the total band absorption in regions of the liquid CCl4 spectrum. The parameters, which are considered to be adjustable, can be determined from experimental total band absorption data or, if available, basic spectroscopic information. Results from the models are compared to experimental total band absorption measurements for CCl4 as well as a prediction based on spectral integration.
