✦ Synopsis
Simplified P N (SP N ) approximations to the equations of radiative heat transfer are derived for optically thick, diffusive systems, and appropriate boundary conditions are formulated. The SP N equations are derived by an asymptotic analysis, while the boundary conditions are obtained from a variational analysis. Numerical comparisons of the SP N , equilibrium diffusion, and full transport equations are presented to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the SP N approximations.

The zone method is applied to non-orthogonal curvilinear grids for the computation of radiative heat transfer. The interchange areas are calculated by the Monte Carlo technique which has been fitted with a generalized ray tracing procedure. The method is applied to two complex three-dimensional (3-D
