Abstract:The effect of supersonic gas flow on glow discharge characteristics in interelectrode space is studied. First, gas outflow through a Laval nozzle with a central body was simulated: gas particle density distributions, gas flow velocity, Mach number, and temperature were obtained. Next, these profiles were used for numerical calculations of the parameters of a transverse glow discharge within the framework of an extended fluid description of the plasma. As a result, it was found that the cathode zones can both s… Show more
