Abstract
The study considers a two-component electroneutral equilibrium complex plasma of finite-sized macroions with charges Z (Z\( \gg \) 1) and point oppositely charged microions with unit charges. System pressure was calculated in the Poisson–Boltzmann approximation with regard to nonlinear screening of macroions by microions in the average Wigner–Seitz cell model. One of the calculation methods obtains pressure by calculating the nonideal part of the Helmholtz free energy; the second is specific to the Wigner–Seitz average cell model. It is shown that the pressure and isothermal compressibility of the plasma are positive over the entire range of macroion concentrations.
期刊介绍:
High Temperature is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes original papers and reviews written by theoretical and experimental researchers. The journal deals with properties and processes in low-temperature plasma; thermophysical properties of substances including pure materials, mixtures and alloys; the properties in the vicinity of the critical point, equations of state; phase equilibrium; heat and mass transfer phenomena, in particular, by forced and free convections; processes of boiling and condensation, radiation, and complex heat transfer; experimental methods and apparatuses; high-temperature facilities for power engineering applications, etc. The journal reflects the current trends in thermophysical research. It presents the results of present-day experimental and theoretical studies in the processes of complex heat transfer, thermal, gas dynamic processes, and processes of heat and mass transfer, as well as the latest advances in the theoretical description of the properties of high-temperature media.
