Abstract

The radiative-transfer problem in an absorbing, emitting, anisotropically scattering, inhomogenous, spherical shell is considered. The medium is taken to have diffusely reflecting boundaries and an internal energy source. The Galerkin method is used to calculate the partial heat fluxes at the boundaries, the radiation density and the net radiant heat flux through the medium. The calculations are carried out for isotropic scattering, forward and backward anisotropic scattering, for linear and quadratic space-dependent, single-scattering albedos, and for different internal sources.
