Abstract
The previous models are applied to a felt of fibres for insulation of high temperature systems. The radiative power field in radiation steady state within a felt of fibres enclosed between parallel opaque walls has been determined by solving the coupled GRTEs by a Monte Carlo method, for different values of the transverse optical thickness of a fibre. The temperature field within the felt has also been determined for two temperatures imposed at the boundaries and for imposed flux and temperature. Finally the optimal conditions of insulation have been determined for a case such that usual conduction can be neglected compared to radiation.
