However, when there are multiple lamps_x000D_
in close proximity the UV light can interact by being scattered, absorbed and reflected. Currently this_x000D_
interaction is not accurately accounted for in reactors. We aim to develop a more accurate model to predict the_x000D_
concentration of UV light throughout the reactor by taking into account interaction between multiple lamps._x000D_
This will increase efficiency for the design of reactors and has the potential to allow UV reactors to be used in_x000D_
large-scale water treatment applications. Results from our work could ultimately lead to a reduction of_x000D_
environmentally unfriendly chemicals in water treatment and better UV sensors., program purpose french : Mercury ultraviolet (UV) lamps are used in reactors to purify water. However, when there are multiple lamps_x000D_
