Global Modeling of CO₂ Discharges with Aerospace Applications

Figure 1

Main rate coefficients in CO₂ discharges; ELAST, REC, DISS, IONIZ, VIB, and ATTACH stand for elastic, recombination, dissociation, ionization, vibrational, and attachment, respectively. The symbol on the vertical axis title stands here exceptionally for the rate coefficients; it is also noted through the text.
