Numerical Simulation of Radiative-Conductive Heat Transfer in an Enclosure with an Isotherm Obstacle
In this paper, the lattice Boltzmannmethod (LBM) and discrete ordinates method (DOM) were applied to investigate the heat transfer in a square radiative-conductive media with heat flux and temperature boundary conditions. Furthermore, an isothermal rectangular obstacle is located in the middle of participating media. The energy equation is solved using the LBM; while the radiative transfer equation is solved using DOM. The effects of various parameters such as the extinction coefficient, scattering albedo, and the conduction-radiation parameter in the presence of an obstacle are studied on temperature and heat flux distributions. It was shown that, decrease in scattering albedo value leads to decrease of the temperature field in participating media. In addition, with increase in scattering albedo value, conductive heat flux increases and radiative heat flux decreases. It was shown that increase in extinction coefficient and decrease in conduction-radiation parameter have some significant effects on increasing the temperature profile, especially in the region with longer distance from obstacle.
