Abstract

In this paper, we construct an asymptotic preserving (AP) scheme for the steady state radiative transport equation (RTE) with discontinuous coefficients on unstructured quadrilateral meshes. There are abundant works of constructing AP schemes for RTE on structured meshes but AP schemes on unstructured or even distorted meshes with discontinuous coefficients are relatively few. When the solution exhibits boundary or interface layers, though the details of fast changes in the layers may not be important, whether the solution remains valid across the layers is not guaranteed by the AP property. Based on the tailored finite point method (TFPM), we proposed an AP scheme on the unstructured mesh that is not only convergent uniformly with respect to the mean free path but also valid up to the boundary and interface layers. We will show analytically that the proposed scheme is AP and demonstrate its numerical performance for problems with/without boundary and interface layers.
