Abstract

We present an asymptotic-preserving (AP) numerical method for solving the three-temperature radiative transfer model, which holds significant importance in inertial confinement fusion. A carefully designedsplitting method is developed that can provide a general framework of extending AP schemes for the gray radiative transport equation to the more complex three-temperature radiative transfer model. The proposed scheme captures two important limiting models: the three-temperature radiation diffusion equation (3TRDE) when opacity approaches infinity and the two-temperature limit when the ion-electron coupling coefficient goes to infinity. We have rigorously demonstrated the AP property and energy conservation characteristics of the proposed scheme and its efficiency has been validated through a series of benchmark tests in the numerical part.
