摘要
When solving the complex radiative heat transfer problems in reheating furnaces, there are a number of difficulties with the traditional zonal methods. To circumvent these difficulties, a new simplified method was pro- posed, which employed imaginary planes, referred to as the imaginary plane model. With the new model, crown wall reduction process was simplified. Therefore, every model zone could be treated as a closed square cavity. It could also solve the problem of radiative blocking in industrial furnaces more effectively. Besides, the new imaginary plane based model may lead to a problem that the denominator was zero. This problem was solved by transforming the ex- pressions of reflex heat flux in the model. The model was capable of dealing with the systems that included black sur- faces. The model was validated by considering the heat transfer in a reheating furnace where the temperature fields in the furnace chamber （including the steel, wall and gas） were obtained. A detailed comparison was made between the simulation and the black box experiment. The results show that the new model developed was valid and accurate.
