A two-dimensional transfer model

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The fundamental definitions of radiative transfer theory are given and the two-dimensional equation of transfer is derived, density of radiation is defined, and two-dimensional two-intensity transfer model is presented. An operational interpretation of the latter model is given interms of military truck transport supply and the functional dependencies of the terms in the transfer equations are evaluated. For this interpretation the density equations are given and the study state and time dependent solutions of the density equations are discussed in polar coordinates. This work was conducted for the U. S. Army Transportation Research Command, Fort Eustis, Virginia, 1961, Task 9R38-11-009-02.
