Abstract

This study deals with the performance evaluation of the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) and the control volume finite element method (CVFEM) in terms of their abilities to provide accurate results in solving combined transient conduction and radiation mode problems in a two-dimensional rectangular enclosure containing an absorbing, emitting and anisotropically scattering medium. Coupling problems for mixed kind thermal boundary are worked out for reflective interfaces. Effects of various parameters are studied on the distributions of temperature, radiative and conductive heat fluxes. The results of the LBM in conjunction with the CVFEM have been found to compare very well with available results in the literature. So, the numerical approach is extended to deal with a practical combination of mixed boundary conditions in a transient multi-dimensional combined conductive radiative heat transfer problems in an emitting, absorbing, anisotropically scattering enclosure.
