The application of a new approximate technique for treating radiative transfer in absorbing, emitting, anisotropically scattering media in two-dimensional rectangular enclosures is presented. In its development the discontinuous nature of the radiation intensity, stability of the iterative solution procedure, and selection of quadrature points have been addressed. As a result, false scattering is eliminated. The spatial discretization can be formed without considering the chosen discrete directions, permitting a complete compatibility with the discretization of the conservation equations of mass, momentum, and energy. The effects of anisotropic scattering, wall emission, and gray-diffuse surfaces are considered for comparison with results available in the literature. The computed numerical results are in excellent agreement with those obtained by other numerical approaches.
