This tutorial restarts from the solution obtained in the Radiative Fin Tutorial described separately in the Training Guide. It solves a problem having the same geometry but, in this case, the fin is made of glass and is therefore transparent. In addition, both the air inside the chamber and the glass fin are assumed to absorb part of the radiation passing through them. In view of the changed problem conditions, the discrete ordinates radiation model (DOM) is preferable to the surface-to-surface (S2S) model employed in the Radiative Fin Tutorial.
The analysis simulates the following heat transfer modes:
