The change of the ND3 molecular temperature with the decrease of the voltage applied to the two charged disks from 10 kV to 2 kV. (a) The change of the temperature in the x or z direction, (b) the change of the temperature in the y direction, and (c) the change of the 3D temperature. The data points are the simulated results, and the solid red lines are the calculated curves from the analytical model of evaporative cooling.
