Abstract: The steady-state simplified $P_N$ approximation to the radiative transport equation has been successfully applied to many problems involving radiation. Recently, time-dependent simplified $P_N$ equations have been derived by an asymptotic analysis similar to the asymptotic derivation of the steady-state $S{P}_N$ equations cite{FraKlaLarYas07}. In this paper, we present computational results for the time-dependent $S{P}_N$ equations in two dimensions, obtained by using an adaptive finite element approach. Several numerical comparisons with other existing models are shown.
