The article deals with transient radiative - conductive heat transfer investigation in constructional silica ceramics with 10% of total porosity in 2D slab geometry. An empirical model, the so-called effective thermal conductivity (ETC) approximation, and rigorous radiative heat transfer (RCHT) problem solution are compared. Effective thermal conductivity coefficients were determined by both quasi-stationary and non-stationary sample heating and corresponding conductive heat transfer inverse problem solution. Rigorous RCHT calculations were based on radiative transfer equation solution. Spectral directional-hemispherical reflectances were used for scattering and absorption coefficients determination by an identification technique. Identification was based on direct problem solution by invariant embedding technique and parametric optimization. Mie theory and independent scattering approximation with regard to scatterers (pores) size distribution were used for mean scattering cosine estimation. It was shown that in the case of non-stationary temperature regime with rapid heating and cooling stages ETC models fail to predict through the thickness temperature distribution with absolute error less than 502013100 K. The absolute value of this error is strongly affected by the heating schedule. Moreover, calculations revealed several features of the heat flux through the unheated boundary that could not be taken into considerations by effective thermal conductivity approaches.
