Fluid and transport modeling of plasmas - Lecture 2: kinetic and fluid solutions of PKE

By James D. Callen

Appears in collection : CEMRACS : Numerical modeling of plasmas / CEMRACS : Modèles numériques des plasmas

In this second lecture a Green function solution of the perturbed plasma kinetic equation (PKE) that determines the effects of Coulomb collisional scattering on linear Landau damping is presented first. This is followed by the development of the fluid moment equations obtained from the PKE. An extended Chapman-Enskog-type approach is used to determine the needed collisional and fluid moment closures for this comprehensive, hybrid kinetic/fluid model. Finally, closures for collision-dominated unmagnetized and magnetized plasmas are presented and their limitations discussed.
