Simulation of Temperature Distribution in a Continuous Tunnel Reheat Furnace Using the Monte Carlo Method
A mathematical model of a continuous reheating furnace has been developed to identify the design and operating parameters that significantly affect furnace performance. In this study, the furnace is modeled 3 dimensionally and theMonte Carlomethod is used to find the overall absorption factor. The overall absorption factor is then used to calculate the energy balance for furnace walls, the gas,...
متن کاملThorax organ dose estimation in computed tomography based on patient CT data using Monte Carlo simulation
Background: This study presents patient specific and organ dose estimation in computed tomography (CT) imaging of thorax directly from patient CT image using Monte Carlo simulation. Patient's CT image is considered as the patient specific phantom and the best representative of patient physical index in order to calculate specific organ dose. Materials and Methods: EGSnrc /BEAMnr...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulation using Excel
A Monte-Carlo Simulation using Excel Spreadsheet has been used to determine the reliability of a geothermal power plant. This simulation technique utilizes the powerful mathematical and statistical capabilities of Excel. Simulation time is dependent on the complexity of the system, computer speed and the accuracy desired, so a simulation may range from a few minutes to a few hours.
متن کاملModeling low-coherence enhanced backscattering using Monte Carlo simulation.
Constructive interference between coherent waves traveling time-reversed paths in a random medium gives rise to the enhancement of light scattering observed in directions close to backscattering. This phenomenon is known as enhanced backscattering (EBS). According to diffusion theory, the angular width of an EBS cone is proportional to the ratio of the wavelength of light lambda to the transpor...
متن کاملBayesian Mixture Modeling by Monte Carlo Simulation
It is shown that Bayesian inference from data modeled by a mixture distribution can feasibly be performed via Monte Carlo simulation. This method exhibits the true Bayesian predictive distribution, implicitly integrating over the entire underlying parameter space. An innnite number of mixture components can be accommodated without diiculty, using a prior distribution for mixing proportions that...
