等离子体对撞过程的混合流体-PIC数值模拟

Numerical Simulation Study of Hybrid Fluid-PIC for Plasma Collision Process

  • 摘要: 基于准一维平板内爆模型, 利用混合流体-PIC程序ASCENT-H与一维流体力学程序MULTI-IFE, 对比研究两团等离子体的对撞过程。混合流体-PIC模拟表明存在显著离子对穿现象, 且离子速度分布偏离热平衡状态; 延长了动能转化时间, 影响对撞过程中的能量转化和温度分布。相应地, 离子温度峰值较流体模拟低、空间分布出现更大展宽。此外, 还探讨壳层速度不对称性对等离子体对撞后温度密度状态的影响。本工作深化了对ICF内爆过程和点火热斑形成过程的理解。

     

    Abstract: This paper utilizes quasi-one-dimensional planar implosion model to investigate plasma collision, comparing hybrid fluid-PIC program ASCENT-H against one-dimensional hydrodynamic program MULTI-IFE. Our simulations reveal that ion interpenetration, evident in ASCENT-H, leads to a significant deviation from thermal equilibrium in ion velocity distribution and prolongs kinetic energy conversion time. This deviation markedly influences energy conversion and temperature distribution, resulting in a lower peak ion temperature and an expanded spatial distribution compared to fluid simulation predictions. Additionally, this study explores impact of asymmetric shell velocities on core temperature and its spatial distribution. Collectively, these findings enhance our comprehension of inertial confinement fusion (ICF) implosion process and mechanisms underlying hot spot formation.
