A Simple Gas-Kinetic Model for Dilute and Weakly Charged Plasma Micro-Jet Flows

This paper presents a simple model for slightly charged gas expanding into a vacuum from a planar exit. The number density, bulk velocity, temperature, and potential at the exit are given. The electric field force is assumed weaker than the convection term and is neglected in the analysis. As such,...
