Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to analyze the external factor perturbations on solar radiation. Firstly, the influence on the photon distribution function in the space of frequencies is analyzed and, later, the modification generated in equations of internal energy, entropy, and radiation is viewed in order to deduce an expression to calculate the spectral exergy of perturbed radiation.

Keywords: exergy; blackbody radiation; internal energy; entropy.
