A Radiative Transfer Modeling Methodology in Gas-Liquid Multiphase Flow Simulations

Table 3

Sensitivity of radiative transfer predictions to the inlet gas velocities in the simulations carried out with the TFM + population balance approach and initial bubble diameter of 4 mm.

Model [air inlet velocity]	Volume averaged incident radiation (W/m^2)	Incident radiative flux on wall opposite to the radiator (W/m^2)	Incident radiative flux on the side walls (W/m^2)
TFM + population balance (3.92 cm/s)	206	55	50
TFM + population balance (7.84 cm/s)	206	50	52
TFM + population balance (15.68 cm/s)	207	48	50
