Transient Radiative Heat Transfer Analysis of Turbid Tissues Subjected to Short-Pulsed Irradiations

Article Preview

Abstract:

Transient radiative heat transfer of turbid tissues with a focused short-pulsed laser is studied. To investigate radiation transfer phenomenon during ultra short time regime, transient radiative transfer equation is adopted and it is solved by TDOM (Transient Discrete Ordinate Method). The nonuniform grid system is considered to capture abrupt change of radiation energy absorption. The hyperbolic conduction model is considered to predict temperature increment of turbid tissues.
