    On ‘‘Radiative transfer in three-dimensional rectangular enclosures containing inhomogeneous,anisotropically scattering media’’
    (Elsevier, 2010-07) Mengüç, Mustafa Pınar; Viskanta, R.; Mechanical Engineering; MENGÜÇ, Mustafa Pınar
    Our 1985 paper (JQSRT 1985; 33: 533–549) reported the result of the research we conducted back then to better understand heat transfer processes in large-scale combustion chambers, especially in pulverized coal-fired furnaces. It was one of the first works exploring radiative transfer in three-dimensional enclosures where absorption and scattering coefficients due to combustion particles and gases were allowed to vary within the medium. This flexibility of the mathematical model made it useful for applications to realistic furnaces and different types of high-temperature systems. This note briefly discusses the motivation behind the paper and the immediate extension of the idea to different systems.
