New developments in differencing the spherical geometry neutron transport equation
Description
Early differencing methods due to Carlson, Lathrop, and others have continued to be used to approximate the spherical geometry neutron transport equations. Nonphysical depressions in the scalar flux profiles continue to cause problems when these early techniques are used. Recent developments, however, provide better understanding of the behavior of these methods and have led to a simple approach to improve numerical solutions
