Specifically, as the mean free path of the photons tends to zero this simulation depicts the formation of boundary layers and the fact that at the interior of the domain the radiation intensity becomes isotropic solving a Laplace equation. This numerical simulation supports the results obtained analyzing the radiative transfer equation via matched asymptotic expansions.DFG, German Research Foundation211504053DFG, German Research Foundation390685813
