Transport coefficients for granular gases of electrically charged particles
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 03 February 2022
Abstract
We consider a dilute gas of electrically charged granular particles in the homogeneous cooling state. We derive the energy dissipation rate and the transport coefficients from the inelastic Boltzmann equation. We find that the deviation of the velocity distribution function from the Maxwellian yields overshoots of the transport coefficients, and especially, the negative peak of the Dufour-like coefficient, $\mu$, in the intermediate granular temperature regime. We perform the linear stability analysis and investigate the granular temperature dependence of each mode, where the instability mode is found to change against the granular temperature. The molecular dynamics simulations are also performed to compare the result with that from the kinetic theory.
