Modeling performance of multi-component fibrous insulations against conductive and radiative heat transfer
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a simulation methodology for studying heat transfer in multi-component fibrous media with air as the interstitial fluid where conduction through the solid structure is minimal, and obtained the resistance of fibrous medium to radiative heat via a simulation method that incorporates both the micro-scale (fiber-level) and macro-scale properties of the constituent materials and then combine this information with that obtained analytically for the conduction heat transfer through the media.

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive discussion of heat transfer by thermal radiation is presented, including the radiative behavior of materials, radiation between surfaces, and gas radiation, and the use of the Monte Carlo technique in solving radiant exchange problems and problems of radiative transfer through absorbing-emitting media.
Abstract: A comprehensive discussion of heat transfer by thermal radiation is presented, including the radiative behavior of materials, radiation between surfaces, and gas radiation. Among the topics considered are property prediction by electromagnetic theory, the observed properties of solid materials, radiation in the presence of other modes of energy transfer, the equations of transfer for an absorbing-emitting gas, and radiative transfer in scattering and absorbing media. Also considered are radiation exchange between black isothermal surfaces, radiation exchange in enclosures composed of diffuse gray surfaces and in enclosures having some specularly reflecting surfaces, and radiation exchange between nondiffuse nongray surfaces. The use of the Monte Carlo technique in solving radiant-exchange problems and problems of radiative transfer through absorbing-emitting media is explained.
