Summary
We implement a multigrid algorithm to solve the radiative heat transfer equations in glass production. The time, angle and space coordinates are discretized using Crank-Nicolson, discrete-ordinate and Galerkin methods, respectively. Based on the same mesh hierarchy for both heat conduction and radiative transfer, our multigrid algorithm consists on using the Newton-Gmres and Atkinson-Brakhage solvers as smoothers on the coarse meshes.
