A Power Model for Plasma Convection

A model for simulating the convection of plasma microstructure has been constructed. Labeled 'striation convection,' the procedure is based on the conservation of the square of plasma density or 'plasma power'. The model is driven by a previously developed gradient drift microstr...

Description
Summary:A model for simulating the convection of plasma microstructure has been constructed. Labeled 'striation convection,' the procedure is based on the conservation of the square of plasma density or 'plasma power'. The model is driven by a previously developed gradient drift microstructure model. Integrated with other plasma numerical routines, simulation results for several two-dimensional F-layer scenarios are presented.
