contents This work demonstrates algorithms to accurately compute solutions to thermal radiation transport problems using a reduced floating-point precision implementation of the Implicit Monte Carlo method. Several techniques falling into the categories of arithmetic manipulations and scaling methods are evaluated for their ability to improve the accuracy of reduced-precision computations. The results for half- and double-precision implementations of various thermal radiation benchmark problems are compared.
