Through the numerical computation for the real process of the radiative heat transfer using the Second-order IPM,the previous IPM (the first-order), the Analytic Method and the Zone Method, it was shown that the calculation accuracy of the Secondr-order IPM is much higher than that of the first-order IPM, and its demand to computer capacity and time consuming is much lower than that of the Zone Method or the Analytic Method. It is verilied that the method is more effective and has a higher accuracy for modeling radiative heat transfer in engineering.展开更多
