Abstract

The Monte Carlo method is used for the simulation of the electron transport of SF6–CO2 gas mixtures in a uniform electric field. The electron swarm behavior of SF6–CO2 gas mixtures is calculated and analyzed over the E/N range of 272.83–364.51 Td (1 Td = 10-21 V·m2) and compared with the experimental results. The result of Monte Carlo simulation shows that the present set of cross sections of SF6 and CO2 revised according to the experimental results gives the values of swarm parameters such as ionization and electron attachment coefficients, drift velocity and longitudinal diffusion coefficient which are in excellent agreement with the respective measurement results for the relatively wide range of E/N.
