Radiation heat transfer

1

Hello, is it possible to simulate radiation heat transfer (Gebhardt factors or Radiosity method) using Fenics?
Thank you

Hi,
It might be useful if you provide a short example of the kind of problem you are willing to solve.

Regards!

Hello,
Thank you for your answer. Please find below a link to an example done using Comsol

@idir_lasloudji,

I checked the COMSOL mph file concerning the provided example. However, in the Surface-to-Surface Radiation section, I didn’t even see any PDE.
FEniCS is aided to solve PDEs by the Finite Element Method (which is also used by COMSOL for partially distributed systems).

Regards.

Thank you again. Vyes, view factor calculation is based on Hemicube algorithm not on PDEs, I was wondering if anyone had solved the problem using Fenics.
