Abstract

A Finite Element method for the analysis of combined radiative and conductive heat transport in a finite axisymmetric configuration is presented. The medium is grey and non-scattering, and the walls are grey and diffuse. The geometry is cylindrical in nature, while the top and bottom boundaries are arbitrary and convex in shape. The method is successfully tested against several cases from the literature, and is applied to the analysis of a Bridgman crystal growth problem.
