Artificial Neural Networks in Radiation Heat Transfer Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the Monte Carlo ray-trace (MCRT) method, millions of rays are emitted and traced throughout an enclosure following the laws of geometrical optics. Each ray represents the path of a discrete quantum of energy emitted ...
Uncertainty Analysis and Experimental Design in the Monte Carlo Ray-Trace Environment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Despite the dominant role of the Monte Carlo ray-trace (MCRT) method in modern radiation heat transfer analysis, the contemporary literature remains surprisingly reticent on the uncertainty of results obtained using it. ...
Estimation and Use of the Radiation Distribution Factor Median for Predicting Uncertainty in the Monte Carlo Ray-Trace Method
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In a recent contribution, the authors show that the uncertainty in heat transfer results obtained using the Monte Carlo ray-trace (MCRT) method is related to the median of the radiation distribution factor probability ...
Second-Law Considerations in Monte Carlo Ray-Trace and Discrete Green’s Function Analysis of Coupled Radiation and Conduction Heat Transfer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A generic Monte Carlo ray-trace (MCRT) engine for computing radiation distribution factors (RDFs), working in tandem with an efficient finite volume formulation based on discrete Green’s functions (DGFs), has been used to ...
