Iterative numerical method for calculating internal flows of a weakly ionized plasma in an electric field
Abstract
A numerical method is developed for calculating the parameters of a non-self-sustained steady-state gas discharge in gas lasers of electroionization type. The method is based on the iterative solution of the equations of gas dynamics and plasma motion, with allowance for the spatial two-dimensionality of electric and gasdynamic parameters. Calculations are presented for a model problem.
