Abstract
A backward Monte Carlo method based on radiation distribution factor is extended to compute the apparent directional emissivity of one-dimensional absorbing-emitting-scattering semitransparent slab with specular semitransparent surface and opaque diffuse substrate. A non-isothermal semitransparent slab is taken as an example to examine the efficiency of backward Monte Carlo method. The apparent directional emissivity of the semitransparent slab is determined by backward Monte Carlo simulation and compared with that determined by forward Monte Carlo simulation. The results show that the backward Monte Carlo method is very efficient in solving the apparent directional emissivity of the semitransparent slab. The backward Monte Carlo method converges more quickly than the forward Monte Carlo method.
