.... The parameter is the solar power flux through the reactor aperture: 1000, 1500, and 2000 kW/m 2 . We have applied the MC method to model the radiative transfer within the SynMet solar reactor and its coupling to convection/conduction heat transfer and chemical kinetics. The model takes into account...
