โฆ Synopsis
The ray effect in ray tracing method was analyzed and three new ray emitting methods for a surface element (method A, B and C) were presented. Numerical computations of viewfactors for three different typical configurations indicated that the proposed methods can significantly eliminate the ray effect. Compared with the conventional ray emitting method, the proposed methods, especially method C, can give much higher accuracy with less computer cost. In addition, the new method may have much wider range of applications.

In the thermal radiation analysis via Monte Carlo method, considerable computational resources are consumed to find the intersection point of an emitted energy bundle with radiant enclosure walls. Therefore, an efficient algorithm for ray-object intersection in complex geometries may cause saving ti
This paper is concerned with field estimation by the ray tracing method (RTM) in two-dimensional (2D) tunnels with arbitrary cross section whose dimension is relatively large compared with the wavelength. The tunnel wall is approximated as a combination of plates. We investigate the accuracy of RTM
