The internal thermal radiation phenomena are described by a first-order integral-differential equation, which poses an intrinsic problem for the popular diffusion-based Galerkin finite element method. By allowing for discontinuity across the internal inter-element boundaries, the finite element procedure can be adapted to solve the integral-differential equation. This paper discusses a numerical procedure based on the discontinuous Galerkin method for the solution of radiation heat transfer involving participating media. Detailed formulation using the discontinuous Galerkin method for internal radiation heat transfer calculations is given. The coupling of the method with the conventional finite element method for mixed heat transfer calculations is also presented.

An analysis is presented to predict the heat transfer characteristics of a plane layer of a semitransparent, high-temperature, porous material which is irradiated by an intense solar flux. A transient, combined conduction and radiation heat transfer model, which is based on a two-flux approximation for the radiation, is used to predict the temperature distribution and heat transfer in the material. Numerical results have been obtained using thermophysical and radiative properties of zirconia as a typical material. The results show that radiation is an important mode of heat transfer, even when the opacity of the material is large (τL > 100). Radiation is the dominant mode of heat transfer in the front third of the material and comparable to conduction toward the back. The semitransparency and high single scattering albedo of the zirconia combine to produce a maximum temperature in the interior of the material.

Abstract The paper deals with a solution of radiation heat transfer problems in enclosures filled with nonparticipating medium using ray tracing on hierarchical ortho-Cartesian meshes. The idea behind the approach is that radiative heat transfer problems can be solved on much coarser grids than their counterparts from computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The resulting code is designed as an add-on to OpenFOAM, an open-source CFD program. Ortho-Cartesian mesh involving boundary elements is created based upon CFD mesh. Parametric non-uniform rational basis spline (NURBS) surfaces are used to define boundaries of the enclosure, allowing for dealing with domains of complex shapes. Algorithm for determining random, uniformly distributed locations of rays leaving NURBS surfaces is described. The paper presents results of test cases assuming gray diffusive walls. In the current version of the model the radiation is not absorbed within gases. However, the ultimate aim of the work is to upgrade the functionality of the model, to problems in absorbing, emitting and scattering medium projecting iteratively the results of radiative analysis on CFD mesh and CFD solution on radiative mesh.
