Numerical simulation of rarefied supersonic flows using a fourth-order maximum-entropy moment method with interpolative closure
Stefano Boccelli, Willem Kaufmann, Thierry E. Magin +1
Maximum-entropy moment methods allow for the modelling of gases from the continuum regime to strongly rarefied conditions. The development of approximated solutions to the entropy…
Modelling high-Mach-number rarefied crossflows past a flat plate using the maximum-entropy moment method
Stefano Boccelli, Pietro Parodi, Thierry E. Magin +1
The 10 and 14-moment maximum-entropy methods are applied to the study of high-Mach-number non-reacting crossflows past a flat plate at large degrees of rarefaction. The moment solu…
Realizability conditions for relativistic gases with a non-zero heat flux
Stefano Boccelli, James G. McDonald
This work introduces a limitation on the minimum value that can be assumed by the energy of a relativistic gas in the presence of a non-zero heat flux. Such a limitation arises fro…
14-moment maximum-entropy modelling of collisionless ions for Hall thruster discharges
Stefano Boccelli, James G. McDonald, Thierry E. Magin
Ions in Hall effect thrusters are often characterized by a low collisionality. In the presence of acceleration fields and azimuthal electric field waves, this results in strong dev…
A 14-moment maximum-entropy description of electrons in crossed electric and magnetic fields
Stefano Boccelli, Fabien Giroux, Thierry E. Magin +2
A 14-moment maximum-entropy system of equations is applied to the description of non-equilibrium electrons in crossed electric and magnetic fields and in the presence of low collis…
