Abstract:
Numerical modelling of the thermodynamic properties of plasma mixture is performed using
the Thomas – Fermi model with two different approaches. For this purpose, a numerical
algorithm, as well as program realization, is developed to solve the Thomas – Fermi equations
with quantum-exchange corrections. For the first time a comparison between different methods
for taking account of the heterogeneous composition of plasma is made and an algorithm for
estimating the corrections for mixtures is developed.
