Abstract

Recentemente, foi proposta uma solução da equação de transporte de nêutrons em uma placa através de uma versão do método LTAN baseada na diagonaliza ção de uma matriz (2Nx2N). Neste trabalho, visando melhorar o tempo computacional do método LTAN, apresentamos uma nova versão deste método baseada na diagonalização de uma matriz NxN. Simulações numéricas são apresentadas para um problema de transporte com alto grau de anisotropia.
