INTRODUCTION The importance of radiant heat transfer in composite walls with air gaps or evacuated spaces has long been recog- nized (ASHRAE 1993). Practical design information is avail- able that serves as a guide for estimating the effects

Based on this information, the thermal resistance associated with a 40 mm plane air space increases by factors as large as 10 for a decrease in surface emissivity from 0.82 to 0.03. The corr

No information pertaining to the levei of accuracy provided by these early correlations is available. Furthermore, no practical

Computer models have been developed by Kosny and Christian (1 995) and Soylemez (1999) that analyze conduc- tive and convective heat transfer in multidimensional compos- ite

Thomas, Ph.D. for graybody radiation and natural convection in rectangular and square cavities (Balaji and Venkateshan 1993; Mezrhab and Bcir 1998; Mohrpatra et al. 1999; Antar and Thomas 2001). However, the studies by Kosny and Ch

8、ristian and Soylemez do not include the effects of radiation, and the stud- ies by Balaji and Venkateshan, Mezrhab and Bcir, and Mohr- patra et al. do not include the effects of conduction in the surrounding structure. A practical first-order two-dimensional method for analyzing heat transfer in two

9、-dimensional composite walls has recently been presented by Antar and Thomas (2001) that accounts for graybody radiation across interior enclosures. This method is computationally efficient and quite general. However, a comprehensive evaluation of the accuracy of this practical analysis approach has

10、 not yet been presented. Because of the significance of graybody radiation in multidimensional composite building construction and the potential usefulness of approximate methods for the design and analysis of applications of this type, a formal numerical analysis is developed in this paper to deter

11、mine the extent to which practical approximate methods can be employed in dealing with the complicating issue of radiant heat transfer. The problem selected for study is a basic building block with a rectangular radiating space with and without natural convec- tion circulation of air under steady-st

In addition to providing a means of evaluating the accuracy of practical methods for modeling the radiant heat transfer in such enclosures, this analysis is intended to provide the framework for accounting for the effects of conduction or convection in air and fo

26、g highly reflective surfaces. In connection with the effect of emissivity E, on the accu- racy of the first-order method, it should be noted that the dependence of radiosity J, on irradiation G, increases with decrease in E, according to Equation 4. Because it is the irra- diation that accounts for

27、the contribution of radiation from the bottom and top walls in establishing the values of radiosity along the vertical surfaces, it is concluded that the significance of the two-dimensional radiation effects increase with decrease in E,. Therefore, it is concluded that the two-dimen- sional effect a

28、ssociated with emissivity is responsible for the decrease in the accuracy of the first-order method with decrease in E,. The fact that the variation in temperature along the verti- cal surfaces of the cavity is small, as shown in Table 1, provides justification for use of the practical approach to m
