Abstract:Radiative transfer in participating media is modeled using a first-order spherical harmonics (P 1 ), or its degenerate form, diffusion. The equations are discretized on an unstructured grid. The method uses a matrix-free algorithm employing an iterative solver from the Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient (PCG) solver package developed by Joubert and Carey [1]. The algorithm couples radiation transport and conduction, by casting them into a Picard iteration. Compared are solutions for two participating media prob… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
