动态电离等离子体的多尺度数值格式研究

In this project, we are going to develop a multi-scale numerical method (UGKS-Plasma) for partially ionized plasma based on the unified gas kinetic scheme. The UGKS-Plasma is a direct modeling method on discrete space and time, based on the multi-component kinetic equations and Maxwell equations. The key is the construction of the multi-scale numerical flux, the modeling of collision term and the coupling between the flow field and the electromagnetic field. The UGKS-Plasma is capable of capturing the flow physics of plasma from the rarefied regime to the continuum regime and can be used to describe the quasi-neutral plasma in the highly magnetized limiting regime. With proper implementation of ionization model, the UGKS-Plasma can describe the partially ionized plasma. In the continuum regime, in order to increase computational efficiency, a high order GKS-Plasma with the Chapman-Enskog expansion for the distribution functions can be constructed based on the high order spacial reconstruction and multi-stage time evolution. In summary, we will develop efficient numerical methods for partially ionized plasma, which is able to capture the multi-scale flow physics and achieve high accuracy and efficiency in the continuum regime.
