Abstract
We have constructed a model to study the ionization structure of electron temperature with the basic parameters of blackbody temperature of the order of and with the solar abundances of heavy metals. The goal of the present investigation is to provide impacts of chemical abundances on structure of temperature, electron density, and temperature fluctuations. This model consists of six metallicities. The average logarithmic abundances (relative to H = 12.00) are He: 11.00, C: 8.43, N: 7.83, O: 8.69, and Ne: 7.69. Abundances of C, N, O, and Ne changes by scale factor 10 and 100. Since, in classical novae ejecta are characteristically enriched in C, N, O, Ne abundances. We have looked into correlations between metal abundances and temperature of electrons by changing abundances of heavy metals and using photoionization modelling codes cloudy. The result revealed that the higher increment the abundances of heavy metals, the lower the electron temperature and shifted to the inner region of It also suggested that the electron number density changes with abundances of the most primary elements like C, N, O, and Ne.
