Simulation of Gas Discharge in Tube and Paschen’s Law ()
Abstract
According to the related theory about gas discharge, the
numerical model of a gas discharge tube is established. With the help of
particle simulation method, the curve of relationship between gas ignition
voltage, gas pressure and electrode distance product is studied through
computer simulation on physical process of producing plasma by DC neon
discharge, and a complete consistence between the simulation result and the
experimental curve is realized.
