Description
Summary:We present a method for solving the two-dimensional equation of transfer. The method can be extended easily to the general linear transport problem. The used technique allows us to reduce the two-dimensional equation to a system of one-dimensional equations. The idea of using the spectral method for searching for solutions to the multidimensional transport problems leads us to a solution for all values of the independant variables, the proposed method reduces the solution of the multidimensional problems into a set of one-dimensional ones that have well-established deterministic solutions. The procedure is based on the development of the angular flux in truncated series of Chebyshev polynomials which will permit us to transform the two-dimensional problem into a set of one-dimensional problems.
