This paper presents the results of numerical calculation of spectral-directional tramsissivity for a non-homogenous thin oil layer, where selected profiles of complex refractivity in the transient layers were assumed.The differences resulting from assuming various types of non-homogeneity in the transient oil layers are shown graphically with transmissivity plotted against wavelength, tickness and the angle of light beam incidence.The method is also suitable for transmissivity prediction for thin interphase layers forming between any media.
