    Notes: Abstract Analytical results of the thermophoretic force on an evaporating spherical particle immersed in a rarefied plasma with a large temperature gradient are presented for the extreme case of free-molecule regime and thin plasma sheath. It has been shown that the existence of a temperature gradient in the plasma causes a nonuniform distribution of the local heat flux density on the sphere surface with its maximum value at the fore-stagnation point of the sphere, although the total heal flux to the whole particle is independent of the temperature gradient existing in the plasma. This nonuniform-distribution of the local heat flux density causes a nonuniform distribution of the. local evaporated-mass flux and related reaction force around the surface of an evaporating particle, and thus causes an additional force on the particle. Calculated results show that the thermophoretic force on an evaporating particle may substantially exceed that on a nonevaporating one, especially for the case of a metallic particle (with infinite electric conductivity). The effect of evaporation on the thermophoretic force is more pronounced as the evaporation latent heat of the particle material is comparatively low and as high plasma temperatures are involved.

    Notes: Abstract Heat transfer from a plasma flow to a metallic or nonmetallic spherical particle is studied in this paper for the extreme case of free-molecule flow regime. Analytical expressions are derived for the heat flux due to, respectively, atoms, ions, and electrons and for the floating potential on the sphere exposed to a two-temperature plasma flow. It has been shown that the local or average heat flux density over the whole sphere is independent of the sphere radius and approximately in direct proportion to the gas pressure. The presence of a macroscopic relative velocity between the plasma and the sphere causes substantially nonuniform distributions of the local heat flux and enhances the total heat flux to the sphere. The heat flux is also enhanced by the gas ionization. Appreciable difference between metallic and nonmetallic spheres is found in the distributions along the oncoming flow direction of the floating potential and of the local heat flux densities due to ions and electrons. The total heat flux to the whole sphere is, however, almost the same for these different spheres. For a fixed value of the electron temperature, the heat flux decreases with increasing temperature ratio Te/Th.

    Notes: Abstract Analytical expressions are presented for the drag force acting on an evaporating or nonevaporating particle immersed in a plasma flow for the extreme case of free-molecule flow regime and thin plasma .sheath. It is shown that the drag force on a spherical particle is proportional to the square of the particle radius and to the relative velocity between the particle and the bulk plasma at low speed ratios. The existence of a relative velocity between the particle and the plasma results in a nonuniform heat flux distribution with its rnaximum value at the frontal stagnation point of tire sphere. This nonuniform distribution of the local heat fux density causes a nonuniforrn distribution of the local evaporated-mass flux and vapor reaction force around the surface of an evaporating particle, and thus induces an additional force on the particle. Consequently, the drag force acting on art evaporating particle is always greater than that on a nonevaporating one. This additional drag force due to particle evaporation is more significant for nonmetallic particles and for particle materials with lower latent heat of evaporation and lower vapor molecular mass. It increases with increasing plasma temperature and with decreasing gas pressure at the high plasma temperatures associated with appreciable gas ionization. The drag ratio increases with increasing electron/heavy-particle temperature ratio at high electron temperatures for a two-temperature plasma.

    Notes: Abstract Analytical results are presented concerning the unsteady heating of a metallic spherical particle innnersed in a rarefied plasma. The results show that the tinte periods required for the solid-phase heating, melting, liquid-phase heating, and evaporation are all proportional to the particle radius. For estimating the time needed for the solid-phase heating and that for the melting, the additional heat transfer rmechanism due to the thermionic emission front the particle surface is usually negligible since the surface temperatures of the particle heated in the plasma are, in general, compartively low during those heating steps. Thermionic emission assumes its effect only as the higher surface temperatures of the heated particle are involved (e.g., higher than 4000 K), while radiation loss shows its effects at much lower wall temperatures. As the plasma temperature is comparatively low, radiation heat loss may restrict the surface temperature of a particle to such a low value that the effect of thermionic emission on the overall heating time can he neglected and complete evaporation of refractor y metallic particles becomes impossible. The uncertainty in the calculation of the effect of thermionic emission is associated with the choice of the value of the effective work function for the particle material.

    Notes: Abstract Based on exact solutions for the heat flux to a particle exposed to a thermal plasma given in a previous paper, initial unsteady heating (including heating of the solid phase, melting of the solid phase, heating of the liquid phase, and evaporation) and radiation effects are considered. Closed-form solutions can be obtained for particles with infinite thermal conductivities. The results show that the time periods required for the various steps are all proportional to the square of the particle radius, suggesting that reduced time periods which are independent of the particle radius are appropriate bases for comparison. Results are presented for three materials (alumina, tungsten, and graphite) and three types of plasmas (argon, argon-hydrogen mixture, and nitrogen). It is shown that evaporation (or sublimation) is by the slowest step among all processes in a plasma reactor if complete evaporation (or sublimation) of the particles is desired. Studies of the temperature history of particles with finite thermal conductivities show that temperature gradients within the particles depend on the ratio of the particles' thermal resistance to that of the plasma. In spite of the difference in initial heating, the analytical expressions based on infinite thermal conductivities predict the correct total time spent for both heating and evaporation even for low-conductivity materials such as alumina. The effect of radiation losses from a particle during heating becomes important for large particles, for high-boiling-point materials, and for low enthalpy differences between the plasma and the particle surface.

    Notes: Abstract Analytical results of the thermophoretic force on a metallic or nonmetallic spherical particle immersed into a rarefied plasma with a heat flux within the plasma are presented for the extreme case of free-molecule regime and thin plasma sheath. It has been shown that the thermophoresis is predominantly caused by atoms at low plasma temperatures with negligible gas ionization, while it is mainly due to ions and electrons at high plasma temperatures with great degree of ionization. The ion flux incident to a particle is constant on the whole sphere surface, while the electron flux to the metallic sphere is dependent on the θ-position with slightly greater value at the fore stagnation point. Consequently, there is a small difference between the metallic and nonmetallic spheres in their θ-distributions of the floating potential on the surface, which causes the thermophoretic force on a nonmetallic sphere to be appreciably greater than that on a metallic sphere at high plasma temperatures. Expressions for the total thermophoretic force on a metallic sphere and its components due to, respectively, atoms, ions, and electrons have been given in a closed form. Calculated results are also presented on the effects of pressure and of electron/heavy-particle temperature ratio. These results can be understood based on the variation of atom, ion, and electron thermal conductivities with the gas pressure, the temperature, and the temperature ratio.

    Notes: Abstract Drag force on a metallic or nonmetallic spherical particle exposed to a plasma flow is studied for the extreme case of a free-molecule regime. Analytical expressions are derived for the drag components due to, respectively, atoms, ions, and electrons and for the total drag on the whole sphere due to all the gas species. It has been shown that the drag is proportional to the square of the particle radius or the drag coefficient is independent of the particle radius. At low gas temperatures with a negligible degree of ionization, the drag is caused mainly by atoms and could be predicted by using the well-known drag expression given in ordinary-temperature rarefied gas dynamics. On the other hand, the drag is caused mainly by ions at high plasma temperatures with a great degree of ionization. The contribution of electrons to the total drag is always negligible. Ignoring gas ionization at high plasma temperatures would overestimate the particle drag. There is a little difference between metallic and nonmetallic spheres in their total drag forces, with a slightly higher value for a metallic sphere at high plasma temperatures, but usually such a small difference could be neglected in engineering calculations. The drag increases rapidly with increasing gas pressure or oncoming speed ratio. For a two-temperature plasma, the drag increases at low electron temperatures but decreases at high electron temperatures with the increase in the electron/heavy-particle temperature ratio.
