GapFluxModelRadiation
Gap flux model for heat conduction across a gap due to radiation, based on the diffusion approximation. Uses a coupled temperature variable.
Description
GapFluxModelRadiation
computes a radiative heat flux across a gap following the diffusion approximation of radiation physics. This user object must be used in combination with ModularGapConductanceConstraint.
The heat flux across the gap is given by the classical expression (1) where is the Stephan-Boltzmann constant, is an emissivity function, is the surface temperature, is the farfield temperature, and is the radiant gap conductance. This expression can be rearranged to solve for : which reduces to (2)
If the coordinate system type is Cartesian, the emissivity is computed using an infinite parallel plate approximation given by (3) where and are the near surface and farfield emissivity values, respectively. The primary and secondary surface emissivity values can be assigned arbitrarily to and . For an axisymmetric coordinate system, the emissivity is computed using the same formula as that given in FVInfiniteCylinderRadiativeBC:
Here the subscript should correspond to whichever surface (secondary or primary) has the smaller radius, and the subscript should correspond to whichever surface has the larger radius.
