dc.description.abstract | We have developed a two-dimensional hybrid fluid – particle-in-cell Monte Carlo collisions (PIC- MCC) model to study the plume of a stationary plasma thruster. The model is based on a fluid description of the electrons (the electron density follows a Boltzmann distribution) and a particle description of the ion and neutral transport. Collisions between heavy species are taken into account with a Monte Carlo method. The electric field is obtained from Poisson's equation or from the quasineutrality assumption. We first show that the results from the PIC-MCC model are close to the results of a more time-consuming direct simulation Monte Carlo approach. We then compare the model predictions of the plume density and ion energy distribution with experimental measurements. Finally, we present a brief discussion on the assumptions of the model and on its ability to give reliable predictions on important issues such as the flux of ions backscattered to the satellite. © 2002 American Institute of Physics. | en_US |
