Combined laminar forced convection and nongray-radiation heat transfer to carbon dioxide flowing in a nonblack, plane-parallel duct

Journal Article · · Numerical Heat Transfer. Part A, Applications
Simultaneous forced convection and nongray-radiation heat transfer to flowing carbon dioxide in a nonblack duct is analyzed theoretically based on the two-parameter wideband spectral model for the absorption coefficients of infrared gases. The validity of the P{sub 1} approximation is also addressed. It is found that, for a nonblack duct, the convective Nusselt number is much larger than for pure convection and that the P{sub 1} approximation somewhat overpredicts the total Nusselt number due to the overestimation of radiation effects, irrespective of the surface emissivity of a duct, but its accuracy is fully acceptable.
