1Chapter 1 Energy Transfer in Plane Layers and Multidimensional Geometries: Participating Media with and without Conduction

The energy equation was introduced in Chapter 10 (Equations 10.1 through 10.3) along with relations for the associated radiative ux divergence (Equations 10.4) and the radiative transfer equation (Equations 10.6 through 10.10). In this Chapter, these relations are extended to the cases of radiative transfer in plane layers and multidimensional geometries, followed by the incorporation of additional energy transfer modes (conduction, convection) as well as internal energy generation.
