GROUP 1. Run title and other preliminaries TEXT(Rad Transf From Hot Wall,TGAS=CST TITLE mesg(PC486/50 time last reported as appx. 9.sec DISPLAY This run analyses the radiative heat transfer from a hot wall to a gas which is assumed to be at a constant temperature TGAS. The gas participates in the heat transfer by absorbing and emitting radiation. The wall is treated as a grey body with an emissivity of 0.5. The results compare well with the analytical solution. Alternatively, the case can be solved using RADIAT command called from GREX3, the examples are provided in library cases 550-552.
