Multicomponent transport in weakly ionized mixtures
نویسندگان
چکیده
We discuss transport coefficients in weakly ionized mixtures. We investigate the situations of weak and strong magnetic fields as well as electron temperature nonequilibrium. We present in each regime the Boltzmann equations, examples of transport fluxes, the structure of transport linear systems and discuss their solution by efficient iterative techniques. Numerical simulations are presented for partially ionized high-temperature air.

Projected Iterative Algorithms for Complex Symmetric Systems Arising in Magnetized Multicomponent Transport
We investigate iterative algorithms for solving complex symmetric constrained singular systems arising in magnetized multicomponent transport. The matrices of the corresponding linear systems are symmetric with a positive semi-definite real part and an imaginary part with a compatible nullspace. We discuss well posedness, the symmetry of generalized inverses and Cholesky methods. We investigate...
متن کاملFluid description of collisional current filamentation instability of a weakly ionized plasma in the presence of magnetic field
In this paper, the collisional filamentation instability of an electron beam-weakly magnetized and ionized plasma has been investigated in the presence of background plasma, using the fluid description. By describing the equilibrium configuration in the presence of binary collision terms between charged and neutral particles and using the local approximation method, the dispersion relation (DR)...
متن کاملMulticomponent Transport Algorithms for Partially Ionized Plasmas
We investigate iterative methods for solving transport linear systems of partially ionized plasmas. We consider the situations of weak and strong magnetic fields as well as nonequilibrium and the linear systems are investigated in their natural constrained singular symmetric form. Stationary iterative techniques are considered with a new more singular formulation of the transport linear systems...
متن کاملMulticomponent Flow Modeling
We first present multicomponent flow models derived from the kinetic theory of gases. We then investigate the symmetric hyperbolic-parabolic structure of the resulting system of partial differential equations and discuss the Cauchy problem for smooth solutions. We also address the existence of deflagration waves also termed anchored waves. We further indicate related models which have a similar...
متن کاملModulation of drug transport properties by multicomponent diffusion in surfactant aqueous solutions.
Diffusion coefficients of drug compounds are crucial parameters used for modeling transport processes. Interestingly, diffusion of a solute can be generated not only by its own concentration gradient but also by concentration gradients of other solutes. This phenomenon is known as multicomponent diffusion. A multicomponent diffusion study on drug-surfactant-water ternary mixtures is reported he...
