Abstract
AREVALO VELOSA, Zósimo; SINITSYN, Alexander V.; CASTANEDA U., Octavio Alejandro and CAMELO B., Miguel Hernando. Una revisión del fenómeno de aislamiento magnético: A review of magnetic insulation. Ing. Investig. [online]. 2007, vol.27, n.3, pp.159-171. ISSN 0120-5609.
High energy devices are designed to work with extremely high electric and magnetic fields. As a consequence, these devices show non-linear phenomena and behaviour, such as magnetic insulation which alters electron trajectory. A mathematical analysis and review of magnetic insulation were carried out as a consequence of non-linearity to find frontier conditions and solutions to the problem. This paper was aimed at presenting the topic in a way which is easier for that part of the academic community which is unfamiliar with it to understand it. The paper gives a description of the phenomena developed by high electric and magnetic fields in a vacuum plane diode, some equations modelling the phenomenon, proves its existence and finds positive solutions based on upper and lower solutions for boundary limit problems and gives some practical applications.
Keywords : magnetic insulation; power flow; stationary flow; Child-Langmuir condition; plane vacuum diode; Vlasov-Maxwell solutions; upper and lower solutions.
