Abstract

Irreversible entropy generation for combined forced convection heat and mass transfer within a vertical duct is investigated in the present paper. A particular attention is paid to radiative heat transfer. A developed numerical model, based on the finite volume technique is used for the solutions of the governing differential equations. The “Ray Tracing” method is applied through the S4 quadrature to solve the radiative transfer equation and radiative entropy generation. However, the “Statistical Narrow Band Correlated-k (SNBCK)” model is adopted to calculate the radiative proprieties of non-gray gas confined between the two parallel plates. The entropy generation is obtained as a function of the temperature, concentration gradients and some physical proprieties of water vapour. The effects of several thermal conditions are analysed in this paper.
