Plasma dynamic simulation in microsecond plasma opening switch

The problem of plasma motion in Plasma Opening Switch with the stabilized magnetic field has been investigated. The main features of the difference scheme for solving magnetic field evolution equations taking into account the thermal forces was described. The effectiveness of calculation on the small cluster in MIPT and “personal cluster” based on Istanbul processor are compares. The results of the plasma dynamics in the Plasma Opening Switch calculation were described. The numerical data was obtained by the MIPT-60 cluster.
