Numerical investigation of a Hall thruster plasma
The dynamics of the Hall thruster is investigated numerically in the framework of a one-dimensional, multifluid macroscopic description of a partially ionized xenon plasma using finite element formulation. The model includes neutral dynamics, inelastic processes, and plasma–wall interaction. Owing to disparate temporal scales, ions and neutrals have been described by set of time-dependent equat...
متن کاملQuantum Hall effect in epitaxial graphene with permanent magnets
We have observed the well-kown quantum Hall effect (QHE) in epitaxial graphene grown on silicon carbide (SiC) by using, for the first time, only commercial NdFeB permanent magnets at low temperature. The relatively large and homogeneous magnetic field generated by the magnets, together with the high quality of the epitaxial graphene films, enables the formation of well-developed quantum Hall st...
متن کاملNonlinear Numerical Simulation of Permanent Magnets
Rare earth permanent magnet models are commonly used in the design of undulators and wigglers. Normally the operating point of the magnet in the B vs. H diagram corresponds to a linear reversible characteristic. The region of linearity is strongly dependent on the temperature. The operation of part of the magnet blocks in the region of non-linearity is responsible for the so-called irreversible...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of the Cathode Plume of a Hall Thruster
The plasma plume generated by the cathode of a 6-kW laboratory Hall thruster is modeled using a hybrid particle-fluid method. The approach utilizes the direct simulation Monte Carlo method to simulate the collision dynamics of heavy particles, the particle-in-cell method to model the transport of heavy species including the effects of electrostatic fields on the ions, and a “fluid” method that ...
متن کاملNumerical Study of Hall Thruster Plume and Sputtering Erosion
Potential sputtering erosion caused by the interactions between spacecraft and plasma plume of Hall thrusters is a concern for electric propulsion. In this study, calculation model of Hall thruster’s plume and sputtering erosion is presented. The model is based on three dimensional hybrid particle-in-cell and direct simulation Monte Carlo method PIC/DSMC method which is integrated with plume-wa...
