Abstract

Fluid simulations are used to investigate a multi-component magnetized dusty plasma sheath. The model consists of positive ions, dust grains, and two species of electron populations. These electrons are assumed to be a sum of two Maxwellian distributions with two different temperatures (cold and hot). According to multi-fluid equations and some dimensionless variables, the dimensionless equations are obtained and solved numerically. The effect of the presence of the hot electrons in the sheath is examined. A significant change is observed in the quantities characterizing the sheath with respect to one species electrons (cold) assumption.
