The DRESOR method for radiative heat transfer in semitransparent graded index cylindrical medium

摘要

During a numerical analysis of radiative transfer in some cylindrical optical thermal analysis and thermal design, applying a cylindrical coordinate system would be much more convenient and precise than that using a Cartesian coordinate system. In this paper, the DRESOR method under a cylindrical coordinate system is proposed to address radiative transfer in a semitransparent graded index cylindrical medium. The dimensionless incident radiation and net radiative heat flux are obtained using the DRESOR method. The accuracy and validity of the proposed method is verified by comparison with other techniques. The effects of isotropic scattering albedo and graded index on radiative transfer are also considered. Additionally, the high directional radiative intensity information is obtained to show the performance of the DRESOR method. It shows that the DRESOR method is an effective technique to address the radiative transfer problem in the graded index cylindrical medium with complex surface temperature characteristics.
