Abstract:An approach is proposed to improve numerical modeling of directional thermal radiation originating from absorbing, emitting and scattering media. In this approach, the finite volume method for radiation transfer is applied on the narrow-band basis to evaluate the source function of the radiative transfer equation. The emission in a given direction is then predicted through integration of the transfer equation with evaluated source functions along lines-of-sight through the medium. The correlated-k model is cou… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
