We consider the diffusive limit of a steady neutron transport equation with one-speed velocity in a two-dimensional annulus. A classical theorem in Bensoussan et al. (Publ Res Inst Math Sci 15:53-157, 1979) states that the solution can be approximated in by the sum of the interior solution and Knudsen layer derived from Milne problem. However, this result was disproved in Wu and Guo (Commun Math Phys 336:1473-1553, 2015) in a plate via a different boundary layer expansion with geometric correction. In this paper, we established the diffusive limit and provide a counterexample to Bensoussan et al. (1979) in non-convex domains.
