Abstract
In this paper, the Standard, Composite, and Canonical forms of the Simplified PN (SPN) equations are reviewed and their corresponding iterative properties are compared. The Gauss-Seidel (FLIP), Explicit, and preconditioned Source Iteration iterative schemes have been analyzed for both isotropic and highly anisotropic (Fokker-Planck) scattering. The iterative performance of the various SPN forms is assessed using Fourier analysis, corroborated with numerical experiments.
