collTimeei Interface

interface
public pure module function collTimeei(Te, ne, Z, logL) result(res)

Arguments

Type IntentOptional Attributes Name
real(kind=rk), intent(in) :: Te

Electron temperature in eV

real(kind=rk), intent(in) :: ne

Electron density in m^{-3}

real(kind=rk), intent(in) :: Z

Ion charge

real(kind=rk), intent(in) :: logL

Coulomb logarithm to be used

Return Value real(kind=rk)

Description

Calculate electron-ion collision time in seconds. This is not the Braginskii time, which can be calculated as this value multiplied by 4/(3*sqrt(pi)) .
