To determine the electron heat flux density on macroscopic scales, the most widely used approach is to solve a diffusion equation through a multi-group technique. This method is however restricted to transport induced by temperature gradients without accounting for other sources of fast electrons because the electric field induced by the charge separation is indirectly treated. In addition, significant discrepancies are reported on the underlying distribution function when compared to complete kinetic calculations. These limitations motivate the research for alternative reduced kinetic models. The physical content of one of them is here deepened, its precision improved and the benefit of its usage compared to other models discussed.
