Numerical validation of viewFactor and FVDOM radiation models of OpenFOAM® and application in the study of food furnaces

ABSTRACT Continuous tunnel furnace has greater flexibility in heating and high productivity and it was becoming the best option for processing industrialized food products. The main objective of this work is the validation of the results from radiation models viewFactor and FVDOM. In his case, the s...
