public static double evaluateSignal(AbsorptionModel absorption,
                                    Grid grid,
                                    double[] V)
```
    Calculates the effective signal registered by the detector, which takes into account a distributed emission pattern. The emissivity is assumed equal to the average absorptivity in the thermal region of the spectrum, as per the Kirchhoff's law.
    
    Parameters:
    
    absorption - the absorption model
    
    V - the current time-temperature profile
    
    Returns:
    
    the effective detector signal (arbitrary units)
