Abstract
We have experimentally studied and numerically simulated the shock-wave flow that arises as a result of the development of a system of microchannels of pulsed sliding surface discharge in helium at low pressure. Using numerical simulations based on a solution of the system of regularized Grad equations (R13) and Navier-Stokes equations, results obtained for various Knudsen numbers are compared and it is shown that the influence of rarefaction on the discharge-plasma-induced shock-wave flow is manifested in a transient regime at Kn = 10−1.
