4th Conference on Computational Thermal Radiation in Participating Media (CTRPM-4). Following the conferences held in Mons (2003), Poitiers (2006) and Lisbon (2009), this fourth edition will be held in Nancy, France, on April 18-20th, 2012.
The conference will present the state of the art and the modern trends in computational radiative transfer in participating media. It will focus on novel and improved solution techniques as well as on their application to actual engineering problems.
The main topics of the seminar will be:
- New developments for the solution of Radiative Transfer Equation.
- Monte-Carlo methods and coupling of MC with other techniques.
- Radiative transfer in complex geometries and/or optically complex media.
- Radiative transfer problems at micro - and nanoscales.
- Turbulence-radiation interactions.
- Inverse methods in radiative transfer.
- Gas and plasma radiation modelling.
- Radiative properties of particles, agglomerates and disperse systems.
- Coupled heat transfer problems involving radiative effects.
- Applications to combustion systems, fire safety, high temperatures.
Additional information, including important deadlines, conference venue, guidelines for abstract and paper´s submission, and pre-registration form may be found in the attached flyer and will be soon available.
