Abstract

A transient finite difference thermal model based on the heat equations is developed, valid for spectrally selective surface coatings on any substrate material within a near-infrared (NIR) furnace. Spectral radiative heat transfer equivalent to a blackbody provides the heat source. Both radiative an...
