Enhanced reliability of drift-diffusion approximation for electrons in fluid models for nonthermal plasmas
Common fluid models used for the description of electron transport in nonthermal discharge plasmas are subject to substantial restrictions if the electron energy transport significantly influences the discharge behaviour. A drift-diffusion approach is presented which is based on a multiterm approxim...
