Abstract
The ideas of the FN and transport PN approximation (TPN) methods in transport theory are suitably combined to formulate an accurate approximation scheme for the monoenergetic transport equation. The method involves the use of the singular integral equation for the surface flux as used in the FN method and angular flux representation of the TPN approximation. This leads to a consistent approximate scheme for the computation of angular flux.Keywords
