The calculations of thermophysical properties of low-temperature carbon plasma

The thermophysical properties (pressure, internal energy, conductivity, thermal conductivity, and thermal power) and the chemical composition have been calculated for carbon plasma at temperatures of 10-100 kK and densities less than 1 g/cm(3). The used calculation model has been developed on the basis of the chemical approach and relaxation time approximation. The approximations used in the present model are valid under considered conditions. The plasma composition obtained in the present model is in good agreement with the available data of other researches. Published by AIP Publishing.
