DYNAMICS OF THE DISTURBANCES OF A WEAKLY IONIZED PLASMA UNDER CONDITIONS OF THE CHAMBERS OF THERMAL ENERGY CONVERTERS
E. N. Perevoznikov, V. A. Pinchuk, and Yu. I. Shveiko UDC 621.453/.457.015.2 Relations between the characteristics of disturbing acoustic effects and the parameters of state of a medium which correspond to the conditions of the development of charge instabilities in the low-temperature plasma of combustion products in chambers of thermal energy converters are determined in dimensionless form. These relations are confirmed by the results of a numerical experiment. D. F. Ustinov "Voenmekh" Baltic State Technical University, St. Petersburg, Russia; email: vap@vp7550.spb.edu.
