30 Participating media Elementary gases like H 2, O 2 and N 2 emit almost no thermal radiation and are almost transparent ( = 1) for radiative transfer. In engineering applications CO 2 and H 2 O-steam are most important as these are good emitters and usually are present in high concentrations. CO, SO 2 and CH 4 are also good emitters but are usually present in small concentrations only. Particles like soot may also contribute in the radiative exchange

42 Radiation in Gases Gases, depending on the molecular structure, absorb and emit photons in some Vibration and/or Rotation bands. Each band consists of some absorption lines.

44 Importance and specifications The products in combustion consist of gases such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, carbon monoxide etc., and in some cases consist of particles like soot, droplets, fly ash, The Importance of gas radiation in industry was recognized in the 1920, The accurate prediction of radiative transfer problem not only depends on the solution method of the Radiative Transfer Equation (RTE), but also depends on models for determining the radiative properties!

45 General statements Empirical (analytical) models, preliminary design ( K, deviation) Numerical models (CFD), detailed design Empirical models could give better results if parameters are tuned properly (by using, e.g., CFD) Many numerical models do not include soot Pressure and fuel type are important (soot formation) Empirical models use a luminosity factor to take care of the influence of soot

72 Brief descriptions of methods to solve the RTE

73 Rosseland Model If the participating medium is optically thick, it is possible to simplify the numerical simulations by means of the so-called Rosseland approximation. Instead of solving an equation for G (the irradiance), it is possible to assume a theoretical value prescribed by the black body expression and then to group the consequent radiation terms in some modified transport coefficients for the energy equation: q = k R dt dz k R = 16n2 σt 3 3β R

74 Differential Approximation (P N ) The basic idea is that the intensity in a participating medium can be represented as a rapidly converging series whose terms are based on orthogonal spherical harmonics. Usually a small number is adequate (P 1, P 3,...). For the P 1 approximation only zeroth and first order moments of the intensity are considered. Essentially the deviation of the local intensity from its local mean value is expressed in terms of local gradients. This allows derivation of a diffusion expression for the radiation flux and consequently the derivation of an advection-diffusion equation for the local mean intensity.

75 The P 1 radiation model The directional dependence in the RTE is integrated out RTE becomes easy to solve with limited CPU demand Effects of scattering by particles, droplets and soot can be included Works well where the optical thickness is large (e.g., combustion) The limitations are: All surfaces are assumed to be diffuse, less accurate for small optical thickness, may overpredict the radiative fluxes from localized heat sources and sinks.

76 The P 1 radiation model The P 1, model solves an advection-diffusion equation for the mean local incident radiation (irradiance) G Consequently the gradient of the radiation flux can be directly substituted into the energy equation to account for heat sources or sinks due to radiation 1 3β A 1 σ s G = κ(4n 2 σt 4 G)

77 The P 1 radiation model Boundary conditions for this model are tricky to handle. Commonly Mark s or Marshak s methods are employed.

78 Hottel s zonal method The equations for emitting and absorbing media can be easily solved and find the conditions leading to a uniform temperature distribution within a medium being bounded by infinite parallel black walls. Then it is always possible to subdivide the generic domain into isothermal zones of appropriate shape such that the constant stepwise profile approximates the actual solution. The analysis, i.e., Hottel s method, allows to recover the consistent thermal fluxes at the boundaries of the arbitrary zones.

79 Discrete Ordinates Model (DO or DOM) The RTE is solved for a discrete number of finite solid angles The method is conservative which means that heat balance is achieved even for coarse discretization Accuracy is increased by using a finer discretization Accounts for scattering, semi-transparent media, specular surfaces and wavelength-dependent transmission using banded-gray option CPU intensive

80 Angular discretization - DOM

81 Discrete Transfer Radiation Model (DTRM or DTM) It assumes that radiation leaving a surface element within a specified range of solid angles can be approximated by a single ray. It uses a ray-tracing technique to integrate radiant intensity along each ray. Relatively simple model Accuracy can be increased by increasing the number of rays Can be applied to a wide range of optical thicknesses It assumes that all surfaces are diffuse Effect of scattering not included CPU intensive if a large number of rays are used

82 DTRM-Ray arriving at an surface element Q

83 DTRM-Analytical solution for a ray di ds + αi = ασt4 π I s = σt4 π (1 e-αs ) + I 0 e -αs

84 DTRM The method as it was originally proposed consists of determining the intensity for each of N (N φ x N θ discretized angles) rays arriving at each surface element Q in an enclosure as shown in previous Fig. The ray and its associated solid angles are equally distributed over the surface of a hemisphere centred over the receiving element, rather than being chosen and weighted through a quadrature technique as for the DOM.

94 Prediction of Radiation in Gases Empirical - Based on measurements of Total Emissivity Less sophisticated, more engineering approaches Line by line calculations (Spectroscopic databases) Numerical Band models (Narrow bands, Wide bands,..) Correlation models (Weighted Sum of Grey Gases, )

95 EWBM (exponential wide band model) Advantages: Experimental base and wide range of application, Small database and fairly less computational efforts, Possibility for utilization in nonhomogeneous mixtures. Deficiencies: Calculates band absorptance and band transmissivity, Can not be used in reflective walls and scattering media, Low accuracy.

96 where a ε,i is the emissivity weighting factor for the ith fictitious gray gas, the bracketed quantity is the ith fictitious gray gas emissivity, κ i is the absorption coefficient of the ith gray gas, p is the sum of the partial pressures of all absorbing gases, and s is the path length. The Weighted-Sum-of-Gray- Gases Model The weighted-sum-of-gray-gases model (WSGGM) is a reasonable compromise between the oversimplified gray gas model and a complete model which takes into account particular absorption bands. The basic assumption of the WSGGM is that the total emissivity over the distance s can be presented as

97 Spectral-Line-Weighted-sum-ofgray-gases-model (SLW) The SLW might be regarded as an improved WSGG model, obtained from line-by-line spectra of the absorbing species. SLW-x where x is the number of gray gases considered.

98 Wide Band Correlated-k model (WBCK) WB models yield transmittances and cannot be easily coupled to differential solutions methods of the RTE. WBCK gives an absorption coefficient for each spectral interval. The weight of each spectral interval is calculated from the blackbody fraction of the interval.

99 Correlated k-distribution The rapid oscillating absorption coefficient κ attains the same value many times (at different wavelengths) but resulting in the same intensity and radiative heat flux. In the k-distribution the absorption coefficient is re-ordered resulting in a smooth dependence κ versus λ
