Radiative Transfer Solver

A Radiative Transfer Solver is a computational method that specifically solves the radiative transfer equation by numerically simulating the propagation, absorption, emission, and scattering of electromagnetic radiation through a medium, distinguished from other atmospheric models by its focus on accurately representing radiative fluxes and heating rates under given physical conditions.
