Framework of unified nonequilibrium plasma model and collisional-radiative model for characterisation of microdischarges in metal vapours of Cd and Zn - dataset

The dataset provides the data related to the modelling of microdischarges in metal vapour of cadmium and zinc. The characterisation of the microdischarges was done in a framework that combined a unified nonequilibrium plasma model and a collisional-radiative model. The plasma model provided the basic plasma parameters (number densities of ground state neutral and singly charged species and their energies, electric field, discharge voltage).

Modelling microdischarges in metal vapour of cadmium in comparison with electrical measurements - Dataset

The dataset provides the data related to the modelling of microdischarges in metal vapour of cadmium. Such microdischarges occur in a testing equipment for the safety assessment of electric devices for explosion protection. A one-dimensional unified non-equilibrium model that resolves the entire discharge gap is employed and simulations are conducted for a constant current of 60mA with gap lengths varying between 20 μm and 160 μm. These conditions match the experiment and enable a comparison with measured data.
