.... Editor: Zhuomin Zhang. 10 04 2013 07 05 2014 A combination of experimental measurements with a numerical model is used to find the volume-averaged radiation properties—extinction coefficient, scattering albedo and approximated scattering phase function—of SiC particle suspensions...

..., and scattering coefficients and the phase functions. It is divided in to two stages. With regard to the scattering albedo of the foam, one can remark that it is always close to 1 ( > 0.85 ) , whatever the shape of cells considered. This means that, in EPS foams, the extinction phenomenon...

The method is benchmarked against the exact and the discrete-ordinates method solutions for various optical radius and scattering albedos. Spatially varying scattering albedos are used to test the performance of the method in inhomogeneous...

... properties of the medium (absorption coefficient, scattering albedo, scattering phase function) are not required, and the drawback that its’ Snell- and Fresnel-generated dynamics suggest a limitation to large, smooth fibers. It is found that radiative heat flux results are highly dependent on bias...
