Abstract

In a gas–particle mixture particles of different makes and sizes may have different local temperatures and are, therefore, modeled with separate energy equations. If the important radiative heat transfer contributions are determined with sophisticated spectral models such as k-distributions, spectral information is lost during the reordering process, making it difficult to separate the resulting radiative heat source across the various energy equations. It is shown here how radiative sources can be determined accurately with the full-spectrum k-distribution assembled from a narrowband database and combined with particle properties on a narrowband level. Proper distribution of the radiative source across the various phases is achieved using regression analysis. Numerical examples demonstrate the accuracy of the model.
