pkGetPowerLossesThe subroutine pkGetPowerLosses computes the electron collisional
power losses, the power converted into heat in other collision processes, the
power radiated and the relative contribution of each reaction to these losses.
pkGetPowerLosses( LDensity[, eP][, eR][, HeatP][, HeatR][, RadP][, RadR] [, STAT] )
| Name | Description | Data type and attributes |
|---|---|---|
LDensity(NnTV) | Local density of species with variable concentration | REAL(double), INTENT(IN) |
eP | Power lost by the electrons per unit volume | REAL(double), OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) |
eR(NKea) | Relative contribution of each electron collision reaction to the electron power losses | REAL(double), OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) |
HeatP | Power converted into heat in other collision processes per unit volume | REAL(double), OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) |
HeatR(NKgas) | Relative contribution of each reaction to gas heating | REAL(double), OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) |
RadP | Radiated power per unit volume | REAL(double), OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) |
RadR(NPhot) | Relative contribution of each photon emission process to the radiated power | REAL(double), OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) |
STAT | Execution status indicator | INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) |
The power/volume losses are in W/L3, where L-3 is the unit used to indicate in the input file the gas density.
STAT = 0: no errors; STAT = n: error number.
