An advanced solutuion method for 3D plasma obejcts is proposed. The method is applicable for various line contours in a wide range of absorption coefficients. Developed approach is based on discretization of the arbitrary plasma volume on a Cartesian voxel grid. Transport of photons between the cells is computed using the ray traversal algorithm by Amanatides [1]. Solution of the particle balance equations with computed in advance radiative transfer matrix is demonstrated for various typical arc shapes, like e.g. free-burning arc and cylindric arc. Results are compared with corresponding calculations using previously developed approaches. As the method is suited for finite geometries and allows for a strict solution of the radiation transport equation, applicability ranges of previous approximations can be specified.
