Abstract

An expression is derived for the radiative source term governing the interaction of molecular gas band radiation and flow in nonhomogeneous, plane-parallel reacting flow problems. The divergence of the net radiative flux is formulated in terms of wide-band absorptance model parameters for combustion products, and is valid for all degrees of optical thickness. When optical thickness is finite, the net absorption is obtained by integrating the radiation field solution over the band lineshapes and taking hemispherical averages. Illustrative calculations for counterflow diffusion flames will be discussed.
