The Monte Carlo Method

The use of the Monte Carlo method in radiative heat transfer is reviewed. The review covers surface-surface, enclosure, and participating media problems. Discussion is included of research on the fundamentals of the method and on applications to surface-surface interchange in enclosures, exchange between surfaces with roughness characteristics, determination of configuration factors, inverse design, transfer through packed beds and fiber layers, participating media, scattering, hybrid methods, spectrally dependent problems including media with line structure, effects of using parallel algorithms, practical applications, and extensions of the method. Conclusions are presented on needed future work and the place of Monte Carlo techniques in radiative heat transfer computations.

Total Exchange

The temperatures of the gases produced in combustion processes are very high so thermal radiation constitutes an important heat transfer mechanism in industrial furnaces. Most furnaces can be modeled as gray enclosures containing non-gray gases. The radiation heat transfer can be obtained with the aid of the weighted-sum-of-gray-gases model, determining the zonal exchange areas for each of the gray gases considered in the sum. For some enclosures with simple geometries, there are correlations to obtain the direct exchange-areas which can be used to determine the total exchange areas. However, for enclosures with complex geometries, determining the direct exchange areas can become a difficult task. In this case, the use of the Monte Carlo method is advantageous, for it allows one to approach geometric complexities without additional complications. Therefore, the method was applied to compute total exchange areas in enclosures containing participating media. Two cases were considered: cylindrical enclosures and enclosures that have generic geometries formed from cube combinations. The results presented a good agreement with solutions available in the literature.

The Monte Carlo Method

The article has considered the calculation of the unified glare rating (UGR) based on the luminance spatial-angular distribution (LSAD). The method of local estimations of the Monte Carlo method is proposed as a method for modeling LSAD. On the basis of LSAD, it becomes possible to evaluate the quality of lighting by many criteria, including the generally accepted UGR. UGR allows preliminary assessment of the level of comfort for performing a visual task in a lighting system. A new method of "pixel-by-pixel" calculation of UGR based on LSAD is proposed.

The article is a continuation of the software research to perform probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) as one of the main stages in engineering seismic surveys. The article provides an overview of modern software for PSHA based on the Monte Carlo method, describes in detail the work of foreign programs OpenQuake Engine and EqHaz. A test calculation of seismic hazard was carried out to compare the functionality of domestic and foreign software.

Prediction of physicochemical and biochemical behavior of peptides is an important and attractive task of the modern natural sciences, since these substances have a key role in life processes. The Monte Carlo technique is a possible way to solve the above task. The Monte Carlo method is a tool with different applications relative to the study of peptides: (i) analysis of the 3D configurations (conformers); (ii) establishment of quantitative structure – property / activity relationships (QSPRs/QSARs); and (iii) development of databases on the biopolymers. Current ideas related to application of the Monte Carlo technique for studying peptides and biopolymers have been discussed in this review.
