NOTE TRANSMISSION FUNCTIONS IN THE NUMERICAL SOLUTION OF RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER PROBLEMS* D. A. MANDELL College of Engineering, Washington State University, Pullman, Wash. 99163, U.S.A. (Received 26 February 1911)
Abstract-The purpose of the present work is to study the use of high-temperature, nongray kernel functions in radiative heat-transfer problems which are solved numerically by the method of undetermined parameters. The first seven moments of the kernels (transmission functions) are presented for a hydrogen plasma at 10,000 K and 20,000 K and electron densities of lOi cmw3 and 10” cm-s. These moments are used in solving the problem of a hydrogen plasma bounded by two parallel black boundaries. Within the plasma is a uniform heat source (per unit volume). It is shown that, by using the moments, the computer time required for the solution is greatly reduced compared to previously reported direct calculations. By using these moments, solutions of radiative heat transfer problems including nongray affects may be obtained economically and compared with results from approximate methods, such as those involving use of the differential approximation. l.INTRODUCTION
of undetermined parameters has been used by a number of authors; but, in general, details of the method have not been given!iP4’ In the solution of radiative heat-transfer problems by the method of undetermined parameters, a polynomial solution is assumed for the unknown temperature distribution. This polynomial is substituted into the governing integro-differential equation and the resulting equation is evaluated at a sufficient number of points to yield one equation for each unknown coefficient in the polynomial. Moments of the transmission functions must then be calculated for use in the resulting matrix equation. The numerical integrations involved in calculating these moments are very time-consuming. This note contains tables of the moments needed for the solution of radiative heat-transfer problems in a hydrogen plasma. The computer time needed to solve problems by using these tables is significantly shorter than the times needed in direct calculations. THE METHOD

PARAMETERS
The solution of equation (6) by the method of undetermined parameters is obtained by assuming a polynomial solution. Since the problem is symmetrical, a polynomial of the following form may be assumed :
When equation (7) is substituted into equation (6), integrals of the following form must be evaluated :
j[(u-$)-Z]2nP2(Z)dZ
(8)
0
and (9)
where the substitution Z = u-u’ was made in the first integral and Z = u’- u in the second integral. When the brackets in equations (8) and (9) are expanded, moments of the second transmission function of the following form are needed : ”

where n varies from 0 to 6. Substitution of equation (7) into equation (6) results in an algebraic equation, once the moments are known ; thus

Equation (11) contains four unknowns, do, d, , d,, d3, and these unknown polynomial coefficients are determined by evaluating equation (11) at three u values and, in addition, using the boundary condition 4(O) = 0, i.e. 3

Since the problem is symmetric, only half the distance between the boundaries need be considered and, for equally-spaced increments, u = u,/8, u,/4, and 3u,/8 are used. A 4 x 4 matrix equation results,

The Uij are functions of the U, MO, and M, values, and the thermodynamic conditions. In order to evaluate aij, it is only necessary to interpolate the moments, and this was done by using linear interpolation on a log-log scale. The matrix equation may then be solved by using a standard IBM program. (W The accuracy of the solution is checked by using both fourth- and sixth-order polynomials.

(14) Since a recursion formula exists for the transmission functions,“’ the higher transmission functions may be calculated from the previously reported F2 values.(4) Unfortunately, it was found, at least for a hydrogen plasma, that the higher F values were nearly constant to within the number of significant figures used in the input. Thus nearly equal numbers were subtracted in evaluating the moments by using equation (14). For this reason, the moments were calculated directly from equation (10). The first seven moments of F, are given in Tables 1, 2, and 3 for temperatures and electron densities of 10,000 K and 10’6cm-3 (P = 0.43atm); 10,OOOK and 10” cmP3 (P = 37.5atm); and 20,000K and 10” cm- 3 (P - 0.57 atm), respectively. Solutions of equation (6) by using Tables 1, 2, and 3 are identical with previously reported direct calculations, as would be expected.(4) In general, the conservation-of-energy equation includes the divergence of the radiative flux, dq,/dy, and thus moments of F, are needed. These moments can be expressed in terms of the moments of F,,

For flow over surfaces, integrals of F, other than those involving moments are needed.“) In order to calculate these integrals, values of F, are needed, and these are given in Table 4 for the same thermodynamic conditions as was used in the previous tables.

Since F,(u) has a singularity at u = 0, a six-point Newton-Cotes open formula was used to integrate F, near the singularity. (‘) A Romberg method was used for the remainder of the integration. For a Au of 2 x 10P6, the errors in equation (16) JimaXF,(Z) dZ--F,(O))/ F,(O), were 11.8, 2.8, and 11.1 per cent for TI = lo4 K, Ne = 1016 cme3; Tl = lo4 K, Ne = 10” crnw3., and TI = 2 x lo4 K, Ne = 10” cme3, respectively. When Au was changed to 2 x lo-‘, the errors became 8.5, 2.8, and 11.0 per cent for the three cases. These errors are within the accuracy of the line-absorption coefficient data used in calculating F, JIO) and thus it is not worthwhile to attempt to obtain greater accuracy. NOTATION
