The algorithm is considered for calculating the focal distance of a hollow conical electron beam generated by high-voltage glow discharge electron guns with magnetic focusing of the beam in the drift region, as well as a method for calculating the diameter of the focal ring and its thickness for such a beam. The proposed algorithm is based on the theory of electron drift in the field of a focusing magnetic lens and is designed using the methods of discrete mathematics and the minimax analysis. The obtained simulation results made it possible to establish the influence of the magnetic lens current on the focal diameter of a hollow conical electron beam and on its focal ring thickness. It is shown that the change in the focal parameters of a hollow conical electron beam can be effectively provided through the regulation of the magnetic lens current.

Possibilities and particularities of using of arithmetic-logic equations in complex models of high voltage glow discharge electron sources are considered in the article. Such electron sources are find wide application in electronic industry, device production and mechanic engineering for electron beam welding, brazing, annealing of produced items, for deposition of composed ceramics films and coatings, as well as for refining of refractory materials with using of electron-beam refusing in the soft vacuum. Main problem of designing of technological high voltage glow discharge electron sources is absence of complex physical-mathematic models. This fact is caused by complicity of physical processes, taking place in the discharge gap at conditions of low and middle vacuum, and it generally holding back the elaboration and providing in industry such advanced electron sources. Complex physic-mathematic model of high voltage glow discharge electron sources, based on apply­ ing of arithmetic-logic relations and methods of matrix programming, is proposed in the article. Main physical processes, taking place in the high voltage glow discharge, as well as mathematic means for describing these processes, and main items of elect­ ron gun, are considered. Mathematic relations for proposed model are written in the form of arithmetic-logic equations. The results of simulation of distribution of elect­ ric field in the discharge gap, distribution of power density of electron beam in the fo­ cus and guiding of electron beam in the equipotential channel, are presented. Its have been shown, that using of arithmetic-logic relations is significantly simplified realiza­ tion of proposed physic-mathematic model with using the means of matrix program­ ming. Possibilities of providing parallel calculations are also analyzed.

Model of capacity of valve with conic rod, which is used for control of beam current of high voltage glow discharge electron guns, is considered. Because of complicity of valve details geometry, mathematical model of dozed item is improved by suitable choosing of empirical coefficients and its approximation. On the base of modeling and experimental data analyzing of dependence of valve exploitation characteristics from geometry parameters of dozed item is provided. Obtained results can be used for simulation of stability of operation of high voltage glow discharge electron guns inconsisting of technological equipment

The article is devoted to the problem of defining the focal diameter of electron beam, formed by the glow discharge electron guns, as well as the necessary pressure in the gun chamber for realising the welding process. Taking into account, that glow discharge electron guns are widely used in industry for welding of different metals, and that for providing the high quality of welding joints estimation of energetic parameters in beam focus is very important, proposed methods are very important for effective elaboration and designing of the novel glow discharge electron guns constructions for specific technological operations. With known focal beam deameter and thermodinamic parameters of welding details material the deep of penetration of welding seam, as well as the necessary pressure in discharge chamber have been estimatied. Two proposed methods are generally based on the analytical solving of explite equation and on numeracal solving of sophisticated non-linear equation. Obtained simulation results with and without taking into account the spsace charge of own beam electrons are also given
