ABSTRACT
Methods of simulation of energy efficiency of pulsed electron sources of high voltage glow discharge are considered in the article. The proposed methods are based on the complex analysis of physical processes, taking place in the region of cathode potential drop and in the region of anode plasma of high voltage discharge. The obtained simulation results show, that energy efficiency of pulsed glow discharge electron sources depended on the parameters of additional discharge and
on relative control pulse duration ratio. With using suitable parameters of additional discharge the energy efficiency may exceed 90%.
KEYWORDS
