Mathematical aspects of the cold plasma model

نویسنده

  • Thomas H. Otway
چکیده

A simple model for electromagnetic wave propagation through zerotemperature plasma is analyzed. Many of the complexities of the plasma state are present even under these idealized conditions, and a number of mathematical difficulties emerge. In particular, boundary value problems formulated on the basis of conventional electromagnetic theory turn out to be ill-posed in this context. However, conditions may be prescribed under which solutions to the Dirichlet problem exist in an appropriately weak sense. In addition to its physical interest, analysis of the cold plasma model illuminates generic difficulties in formulating and solving boundary value problems for mixed elliptic-hyperbolic partial differential equations.

Convective drying of atmospheric pressure cold plasma pretreatment saffron stigmas: kinetic modeling

In this study, the drying kinetics of saffron stigmas pretreated by atmospheric pressure cold plasma pretreatment (15, 30, 45 and 60 s) followed by hot air drying (60°C and 1.5 m/s) were modeled using 10 conventional mathematical thin layer models. The use of cold plasma pretreatment reduced drying time and enhanced effective moisture diffusivity (Deff). The most accurate models describing beha...

Kinetic Model Study of Dry Reforming of Methane Using Cold Plasma

ABSTRACT In this work, the dry reforming of methane was studied using a corona and glow discharge plasma microreactors. A chemical kinetic model was developed to understand the reaction better. The modelization allowed prediction of the reactants conversion according to the energy transfer to the gas (P×τ). The β value is trait of the energy cost, whatever this value was leeser indicated ...
