Numerical Modeling of Individual Plasma Dynamic Characteristics of a Light-Erosion MPC Discharge in Gases
Source abstract
Abstract
A mathematical model is formulated, and a numerical study of magneto-plasma compressor (MPC) discharges in gases for a wide range of changes in the main electrical parameters and the characteristics of the surrounding gas environment is carried out. The performed calculations showed, depending on the role of one or another heating mode (Ohmic, transient, and plasma dynamic), three different types of quasi-stationary spatial distributions of plasma parameters, which can be used to judge the features of the emerging structures and the dynamics of plasma propagation, and, therefore, to speak about the modes of discharge. The features of the radiation plasma dynamic structures and the change in the main parameters of the plasma of an MPC discharge in the transient regime are considered.
