This study presents a model for calculating the effective temperature of exoplanets in low-eccentricity binary star systems, focusing on Kepler-47b and Kepler-453b. Existing models, typically designed for single-star systems, fail to account for the complexities of binary star dynamics. Our model incorporates key parameters such as stellar luminosities and planetary albedo, providing enhanced accuracy in estimating effective temperatures. We find that Kepler-47b has an effective temperature of approximately 452.56 K, while Kepler-453b is cooler at 251.72 K, indicating different thermal environments. These findings underscore the model's potential for advancing our understanding of planetary climates in binary systems.
