Comparative Analysis of Methods for Mathematical Modeling of Specific Electrical Conductivity of Plasma in the Channel of an Electric Discharge in Water

In the present work, a comparative analysis of three methods for determining the specific electrical conductivity of the plasma formed in the channel of an electric discharge in water is carried out for its mathematical modeling. The parameters of the empirical function are determined, at which the results of mathematical modeling are consistent with the experimental data. The necessity of using empirical functions in calculating the specific electrical conductivity of plasma has been substantiated. The obtained ratios made it possible to significantly increase the adequacy of the previously developed mathematical model of the physical discharge processes in water and to expand the range of parameters in which it can be used.
