Table 1.

Mean relative errors of the mean intensity for a zero-opacity model, using either Gauss–Legendre quadrature, or the trapezoidal rule with integration nodes from Lobel & Blomme (2008).

Legendre-integration Trapezoidal rule
Nθ · Nϕ >968 512 2105 1037 544
Δ (%) 9.4 9.9 9.6 10.4 12.4

Notes. The theoretical solution has been calculated from the dilution factor and the intensity emitted from the stellar core (see text). Nx = Ny = Nz = 133 spatial grid points have been used.
