Summary

In this tutorial you studied combined natural convection and radiation in a three-dimensional square box and compared the performance of surface-to-surface (S2S) radiation models in ANSYS FLUENT for various radiating surfaces. The S2S radiation model is appropriate for modeling the enclosure radiative transfer without participating media whereas the methods for participating radiation may not always be efficient.

For more information about the surface-to-surface (S2S) radiation model, see this section in the separate User's Guide.
