The Interaction of Thermal Radiation with Conduction and Convection Heat Transfer1

Publisher Summary The interaction of radiation upon different modes of heat transfer—conduction and convection—is an area which has recently gained considerable attention. Although energy transfer by radiation has been of interest to physicists for a relatively long period of time, it is only recently that the fundamental equations describing energy transfer in an absorbing medium have been developed for application to engineering systems. This chapter discusses the most basic effects of radiation upon the other modes of heat transfer, and the extremely simple physical models are employed. Because problems involving radiation interaction generally contain a large number of parameters, emphasis is placed upon evaluating only first-order radiation effects. Although such results certainly do not give a complete solution to the problem, they do serve the useful purpose of indicating under what conditions radiation effects need to be considered.
