Abstract

The article presents the multigroup kinetic approximation of radiation transport in hohlraum systems. The view factor-based method of numerical solution is proposed. Its advantages are a detailed account of the problem geometry and accurate handling of the solution angular anisotropy and discontinuities. The method is computationally efficient and easily parallelizable. Coupled to the kinetic + hydro description of the wall dynamics, it represents a powerful tool for integrated investigation of the systems with strongly inhomogeneous optical properties.
