The aim of this technical note is to present some gaseous
radiative property data which have been obtained at EM2C
laboratory and which are available on a floppy disk. These
data, i.e. the parameters of statistical narrow-band (SNB)
and correlated-K (CK) models, are useful for accurate calculation of radiative transfer in gases at high temperature.
They may also serve as a basis for benchmark comparisons
between various methods for the resolution of radiative
transfer problems in gases.
The parameters have been obtained theoretically. In a first
step, high temperature approximate spectroscopic databases
have been generated for H20 [l] and CO2 [2]. They include
all the lines of HITRAN 92 [3], those of Flaud et al. [4] for
H,O near 2.7 #m, and generated lines which significantly
contribute to absorption and emission at temperatures up to
2500 K. Details related to comparison with experiments and
to the conditions of validity of these databases are given in
refs. [i, 2]. In a second step, the model parameters described
here have been obtained from the previous spectroscopic
databases by using line-by-line (LBL) calculations. In the
case of CO, SNB parameters have been calculated from the
spectroscopic data of refs. [5, 6].
