This paper reports a study on the production of plasma jets that are out of equilibrium through numerical solutions of electron energy distribution function using a self-consistent methodology. The approach includes the integration of the continuity, momentum, and Poisson equations, which allows the use of the mean electron energy to fit the transport and source coefficients. The paper concurrently presents an analysis of cold plasma generation in a tube. This investigation utilizes COMSOL Multiphysics software to simulate the electric field, potential, and electron density in space. Moreover, the study examines how the dielectric’s permittivity impacts plasma propagation. The simulated outcomes are compared with experimental and numerical results. As electron density, ionization rate and electric potential vary during plasma propagation on a dielectric surface, and the permittivity of dielectric materials increases, it promotes an increase in electron density around it. This, in turn, accelerates the ionization front, indicating efficient polarization and accumulation of electric charges, specifically electrons, near the dielectric surface. |
