RayTraceHeatTransfer.jl enables the user to quickly quantify radiative heat transfer in a user defined enclosure containing a gas which scatters, emits and absorbs radiation. The package implements a combination of two approaches: 1) Several photon bundles are traced throughout the domain to quantify the 'connectivity' of the enclosure. 2) Matrix algebra allows for subsequent quick solution of heat transfer problems yielding the temperature distribution and heat fluxes of the domain.
