It is fully the outcome of your idea. You claimed that the radiation between a colder body was canceled out by radiation from the hotter body. If two light bulbs are almost at the same temperature, the cancellation should be almost complete. That would leave a dark streak between them. No dark streak means no radiation cancellation.My examples showed that the quantum theory must be included in thermodynamics to handle many observable repeatable experiments. The major example I gave is that radiation thermodynamics absolutely must use quantum mechanics. You are dismissing the quantum aspect of the theory.Ok, I figured that you copied that from someplace else. The professor at Georgia State should have been more exact in his statement. See the little picture at the right just below Clausius's statement that he gives. That pictures show Qh and Qc as the energy between the bodies. You should know that Q stands for heat. So the professor does clarify his statement that it is heat that can't flow spontaneously, not energy. The professor didn't accurately paraphrase Clausius's words although he did clarify it with the accompanying picture.Of course it does. The concept of entropy encompasses all possible forms of energy.I see you also copied that from the same professors notes. I find no inaccuracy there.That, of course, is the reason that IR astronomy is done at the highest and driest altitudes possible (including outer space) to get away from absorption.
