Abstract
Radiative heat transfer between a plane source and an aerosol is investigated through the Monte Carlo method. Thermal energy is transferred from a long rectangular source to monodisperse natural fog models. The analysis is only for radiative transport and does not include convection which would be coupled in a complete analysis. Direct energy transfer to the droplets of the aerosol is investigated for values of extinction coefficient of 10 km-1 and 80 km-1, absorption coefficient to extinction coefficient ratios of 0·4 and 0·5, and scattering functions of the strong forward and isotropic types. Monochromatic radiation at a wave length of 10 μ is used and multiple independent scattering is included. The numerical results are illustrated in a manner which expresses the spatial distribution of radiative interactions and exposes the implications of this mode of energy exchange as a means of fog dispersal over airport runways. © 1970.
