Abstract
Analyses are presented for infrared radiative energy transfer in gases when other modes of energy transfer simultaneously occur. Fully developed laminar flow of an absorbing emitting gas in a circular tube is considered under the conditions of uniform wall heat flux. Nongray as well as gray formulations are presented, and results are obtained for illustrative cases. Appropriate limiting solutions of the governing equations are obtained and conduction-radiation interaction parameters are evaluated. The influence of variable wall emittance (gray and nongray) upon radiative energy transfer in nongray gases is investigated. In particular, nongray results are obtained, in the large path length limit, for the flow of CO2 through stainless steel tubes of various compositions. Finally, a correlation is presented which can be utilized to extend all nongray results for the parallel plate geometry, already available in literature, to yield results for the corresponding case of a circular tube.
