Transient coupled radiative and conductive heat transfer in a two-layer, absorbing, emitting, and isotropically scattering non-gray slab is investigated by the ray tracing method in combination with Hottel's zonal method. One outer boundary is opaque, and another is semitransparent. The radiative energy transfer process in a semitransparent composite is divided into two sub-processes, one of which considers scattering, the other does not. The radiative transfer coefficients of the composite are deduced under specular and diffuse reflection and combined specular and diffuse reflection, respectively. The radiative heat source term is calculated by the radiative transfer coefficients. Temperature and heat flux are obtained by using the full implicit control-volume method in combination with the spectral band model. The method presented here needs only to disperse the space position, instead of the solid angle. A comparison with previous results shows that the results are more accurate.
