Problem with chtMultiRegionSimpleFoam and radiation
 

Hello,


it looks like the radiative heat flux is calculated properly using discrete ordinates method with 60 sectors. Irradiance looks good and fits theoretical equations.


BUT,

it also looks like this flux is simply not taken into account in the energy equation... It acts like the radiative contribution is purely lost. Moreover, the wallHeatFlux utility does not care about the radiative contribution neither...


I use openFoam 2112 but this problem has always been here for me.
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong ?
Any other users experiencing this issue ??
