The Effects of Superstatistics Properties on Hot Plasma

Abstract

The electron impact ionization is a crucial atomic process in the collisional radiative model and the study of ionization balance. The superstatistics theory, which was originally proposed for the study of non-equilibrium complex systems, has recently been extended to studies of small systems interacting with a finite environment due to their interesting statistical behavior. This paper introduces the superstatistics formalism in the case of ionization rates with different values of the dynamical parameter q and shows how it affects the calculation of the ionization rates for Li+. Moreover, the distribution function for the effective Boltzmann factor of superstatistics was swapped.

Prediction of the Adhesion Strength of Coating in Plasma Spray Deposition

“…Because deposition is a continuous process of buildup from the particle stream, it is preferable to compare the average mass temperature to the temperature of the individual particle. The plasma stream containing the particles is a non-equilibrium system with temperature fluctuations over spatial and temporal scales [13]. The enthalpy is defined as the effective power of the plasma jet divided by the consumption of the primary gas [14].…”
