      The Incident Radiation is the total radiation energy that arrives at a location per unit time and per unit area. So this is a quantity which is valid within every cell of a cell zone which participates in radiation. The Surface Incident Radiation is the net incoming radiation heat flux on a surface and for that it is only defined on surfaces. For both the unit quantity is heat-flux (W/m^2)
