Radiative Heat Transfer: Analytical & Monte Carlo Solutions

This lecture covers the analytical and Monte Carlo solutions for radiative heat transfer in isotropically scattering media at radiative equilibrium between gray and diffuse walls. It explains the exact solution methods, overall optical thickness, and frequency functions for emission, absorption, and scattering. The lecture also delves into the Monte Carlo method for thermal radiation, including the radiative energy bundles, radiative flux, and scattering phase functions.
