Example 1 - Using the All Radiation type

Use the All Radiation type if the model's geometry forms a single complete enclosure and there is no need to explicitly calculate radiation leaving that enclosure.

In this simple model, the oven forms a complete enclosure.

The arrows show the element normal direction. Some meshed faces require that you also define Thermo-Optical Properties for their bottom side. In the previous figure, such a face is shown with the following arrow: .

The oven top side points toward the interior of the oven, so no leakage exists. The reflector surface in the upper corner needs to have bottom side Thermo-Optical Properties defined since it participates in the radiation process from both sides. All the other materials should not have bottom side Thermo-Optical Properties defined.

Because of the simplicity of the geometry, the radiative heat exchanged to the exterior of the oven can be calculated by a radiative thermal coupling.
