AbstractA finite element cochain complex on Cartesian meshes of any dimension based on the $$H^1$$ H 1 -inner product is introduced. It yields $$H^1$$ H 1 -conforming finite element spaces with exterior derivatives in $$H^1$$ H 1 . We use a tensor product construction to obtain $$L^2$$ L 2 -stable projectors into these spaces which commute with the exterior derivative. The finite element complex is generalized to a family of arbitrary order.

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.
