TLDR
In this paper, 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.read more

A Generalized Pyrolysis Model for Combustible Solids
TL;DR: In this paper, a generalized model for simulating pyrolysis, gasification, and burning of a wide range of solid fuels encountered in fires is presented, which can be applied to noncharring and charring solids, composites, intumescent coatings and smolder in porous media.

The effect of radiation on free convection from a porous vertical plate
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of radiation on the natural convection flow of an optically dense incompressible fluid along a uniformly heated vertical plate with a uniform suction was analyzed using a series solution for small values of ξ (a scaled streamwise coordinate); an asymptotic solution for large ξ ; and a full numerical solution.

Model of Radiation and Heat Transfer in Laser-Powder Interaction Zone at Selective Laser Melting
TL;DR: In this article, a model for coupled radiation transfer and thermal diffusion is proposed, which provides a local temperature field for single-line scanning of a laser beam over a thin layer of metallic powder placed on a dense substrate of the same material.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Predicting reflectance functions from complex surfaces
TL;DR: A physically-based Monte Carlo technique for approximating bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) for a large class of geometries by directly simulating optical scattering, which removes most restrictions on surface microgeometry.
