Estimation of the change in the gas flow rate from the surface of a tungsten plate under pulsed heat load

The work is devoted to the numerical implementation of the tungsten evaporation process model. The tungsten evaporation model is based on solving the two-phase Stefan problem for temperature in the sample area and gas dynamics equations over the sample. The calculation results for parameters corresponding to those used on the BETA facility at BINP SB RAS show that it is possible to use the boundary homogeneous conditions of the Neumann for the velocity when setting the gas density on the plate surface. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.
