Abstract:Two-dimensional with three-dimensional velocity space axisymmetric hybrid-PIC model of Hall thruster discharge called Hybrid2D has been developed. Particle-in-cell (PIC) method was used for neutrals and ions (heavy species) and fluid dynamics on magnetic-field-aligned (MFA) mesh was used for electrons. Time saving method for heavy species moments interpolation on MFA mesh was developed. The method implies using regular rectangle and irregular triangle meshes, connected to each other on preprocessing stage. Ele… Show more
