Improvement of the plasma-wall model on a fluid-PIC code of a hall thruster
Two issues are discussed. First, a new sheath model that takes into account charge-saturation is implemented in HPHall. Second, the transition between the quasineutral solution and the sheaths at the lateral walls is found to be treated deficiently in the original code. The use of finer meshes yield...
