Trying to make it easier to read.

| Mar 1, 2015 at 18:29 | comment | added | ProfRob | I know what the greenhouse effect is, I want to know how your greenhouse coefficient is defined. | |
| Mar 1, 2015 at 17:03 | comment | added | Script Kitty | I think greenhouse factor reduces outgoing radiation from stuff like vapor in the air. The Earth's greenhouse coefficient is about 0.4 I think. I plugged the numbers into an open simulator and got a habitable range (it did not take into account 6x luminosity) and after plugging it into the equation it gives me a large amount of Kelvin. There are many variants of the equation. Thanks for your help. | |
| Feb 28, 2015 at 10:02 | comment | added | ProfRob | Look at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planetary_equilibrium_temperature The answer and necessary formula is given there. Actually, I just realised (and reversed my downvote of your question), that this does not incorporate your greenhouse effect.Can you define what you mean by "greenhouse coefficient"? | |
