Abstract

Simulations and experimental characterizations of a stationary plasma thruster are compared for four different wall materials to investigate near-wall conductivity (dielectric materials) and in-wall conductivity (conducting materials) in such a discharge. Using a one-dimensional transient fluid model that takes into account a possible electron temperature anisotropy, it is shown that electron-wall backscattering plays a crucial role by maintaining a relatively high electron temperature along the magnetic field lines which in turn drives large electron currents toward the walls. The large differences in discharge current observed experimentally for the dielectric materials are qualitatively recovered, confirming that near-wall conductivity results from the combined effects of secondary electron emission and electron backscattering. A clear correlation is found between the appearance of space charge saturation at the walls and a jump of the discharge current observed in experiments when varying the discharge voltage or the magnetic field. The anomalously high values of discharge current observed experimentally with graphite are also correctly recovered in simulations, which highlight a plasma short-circuiting effect resulting from in-wall currents.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
