Abstract

In companion papers (hereafter referred to as Part I and Part II), we described a generalized nodal finite element formalism, including practically all existing numerical schemes for solving the discrete ordinates equations in slab geometry. General discrete (or cell-edge) and continuous convergence orders as well as convergence orders for moments of the approximations were proved in several theorems given in Part I and II and they are verified here using a model problem. Finally the methods described in Part I and II are applied to some non-model problems.
