RADCON

improved radiation and convection

• Use

• Radiation
• Convection
• Implementation

• Optional module for KOBRU86, TRISCO, BISCO, SOLIDO linking radiation and convection to 2D/3D conduction

• Based on view factors between mesh surfaces
• Non-linear temperature dependency
• Includes surface emissivities of materials

• Empirical formulas based on enclosure measures, heat flow direction (horizontal, upward, downward), temperature differences, in line with EN ISO standards
• Non-linearity by adaptive recalculation of convective heat transfer coefficients

• Enclosed air space with known heating power and unknown air temperature
• Enclosed air space with known air temperature and unknown heating power
• Environment with known air temperature and known radiation temperature
