Ma. Madkour, RADIATION TRANSFER IN A SPHERICAL INHOMOGENEOUS-MEDIUM BY THE PROJECTION METHOD, Journal of quantitative spectroscopy & radiative transfer, 56(2), 1996, pp. 303-308
The radiative heat flux at the boundary of an inhomogeneous sphere con
taining an internal energy source and subject to general boundary cond
itions (problem 1) is obtained in terms of the albedo of the correspon
ding source free problem with isotropic boundary condition (problem 2)
. The solution of problem 2 is obtained by the projection method. Nume
rical results for the partial heat flux and emissivity for a given int
ernal energy source are obtained. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science
