This chapter presents a finite-volume (FV) method for computing radiation heat transfer
processes. The main ingredients of the calculation procedure were presented by Chai et …

In this study, we systematically compared the accuracy and computational cost of two
popular solution methods for the radiative transfer equation (RTE): the spherical harmonics …

The P-1 approximation and the Monte Carlo method are applied in cylindrical coal-fired
furnaces. The absorption and scattering efficiencies and the phase function of coal, char and …

The radiative heat transfer in a complex two-dimensional enclosure with obstacles with
participating medium is very important in practical engineering applications. In order to deal …

This paper deals with the performance evaluation of the collapsed dimension method (CDM)
and the discrete transfer method (DTM) in terms of computational time and their abilities to …

Hydrocarbon fuels are involved in most major fire accidents occurring in industrial facilities.
Due to the need for an in‐depth understanding of the phenomena associated with …

The phenomena of radiation-affected steady-laminar natural convection in a rectangular
enclosure with two incomplete partitions are numerically examined under a large …

The present review is intended to encompass the English language heat transfer papers
published in 1999. The papers have been placed into a number of subject categories. While …

A reduced integration Monte Carlo ratios (RIMCR) method is developed in this paper to
calculate the total exchange areas (TEAs) and direct exchange areas (DEAs) with high …

The standard discrete ordinates method (SDOM) produces anomalies caused by ray effects
if the temperature of the walls has discontinuities or abrupt changes. Ray effects may be …
