Abstract

Two-dimensional direct Monte Carlo simulation of neutral gas expansion under pulsed evaporation into vacuum has been performed. Analysis of temporal evolution of the spatially-averaged characteristics of the plume has been carried out for a wide range of the problem parameters: the spot radius and the evaporation depth. Special attention has been paid to determination of the limits of applicability of one-dimensional approach for gas dynamic simulation.
