Numerical Investigation of Ion Transport in Under-Expanded Jet Flows

Abstract: The transport of free ions through highly under-expanded jet flows of neutral gases and in the presence of applied electric fields is investigated by continuum-based numerical simulations. A five-moment mathematical model and parallel multi-block numerical solution procedure is developed for predicting the ion transport. The model incorporates the effects of ion-neutral collision processes and is used in conjunction with a NavierStokes model and flow solver for the neutral gas to examine the key features of th… Show more

“…Companion numerical studies of ion transport in the interface regions of mass spectrometer systems have also been carried out recently by the authors. The non-equilibrium transport of ions through the background neutral gas under the influence of a prescribed electric field and subject to ionneutral collision processes have been studied using an extended fluid model [7,8]. As is the case for other technological devices [9,10], the neutral gas is shown to play an important role in dictating the ion dynamics and cannot be neglected.…”

“…The five-moment model has been used successfully in previous studies of ion transport in MS systems by Jugroot et al [12,13]. It provides 'one-way' coupling between the ion and neutral flows by incorporating the effects of ion-neutral collision processes.…”
