Convected Scheme Simulations of Glow Discharges

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO Science Series: B ((NSSB,volume 367))

4. Conclusion

The Convected Scheme (CS) was reviewed, with emphasis on recent modifications of the scheme which make it particularly accurate and effective in a variety of different physical situations corresponding to several important classes of discharges. Detailed discussion of the algorithm and results for a dc positive column were compared to Monte Carlo simulations and excellent agreement was found.
