We have employed a heat and mass transfer model that resolves the radiative transport in detail,   but employs a simplistic model for the mass transfer and conductive and convective heat transfer.  Ceria-based thermochemical reactors operate at extremely high temperatures, and the radiative heat transfer is by   far the most important mode of heat transfer. The simplifying assumptions will be given in more detail below.  \subsection{Conservation of Energy} 

We use the notation of Modest \cite{Modest_2013}.  \subsection{Conservation of Mass}  %  Here we employ the correlations from José found in [his reference]. We assume the suspension is dilute such that the particles are entrained (?) and do not interact with each other.
