Coal is the most abundant fossil fuel and is widely used as an energy source for combustion
and gasification. Both experimental methods and computational tools are required for the …

Modeling thermal radiation in combustion environments can be extremely challenging for
two main reasons. First, the radiative transfer equation (RTE), which is the cornerstone of …

Radiative heat transfer (RHT) is often the dominant mode of heat transfer in flames, fires,
and combustion systems and affects significantly temperature distributions directly and …

Thermal radiation is a significant mode of energy transmission besides conduction and
convection in most combustion systems. Accurate treatment of thermal radiation is a crucial …

Radiation heat transfer is important in spherical flame modeling, such as to determine the
flame speed. It is beneficial to use one-dimensional (1D) model to solve the three …

Turbulent pool fires have been studied as a canonical configuration in fire science with wide
interest. A numerical study of a small-scale turbulent heptane pool fire is conducted in the …

The full-spectrum correlated-k-distribution (FSCK) look-up table previously developed by the
authors Wang et al.(2018) provides an efficient means for accurate calculations of radiative …

Infrared thermography can be used to provide useful insights into the characteristics of flows
containing participating media (eg, CO 2, H 2 O vapor, CO, CH 4, etc.). What can make this …

A numerical model is presented for spectral characteristics of radiation coming from a pool
fire flame. The case studies are 1.75 m× 1.75 m and 2.5 m× 2.5 m Kerosene pool fires …

In this study, chemical composition dependency of both radiative properties of ash particles
and radiative heat exchange are investigated for conditions typically encountered in …
