Abstract: In this paper is described the modification of the method to have published early. This method was used for obtaining a numerical solution of kinetic equations. These equations describe the motion of the rarefied plasma jet. It is necessary to modify method mentioned above because some procedures don't function for increasing the calculation range. Apart from, it was found the range of the variation nondimension parameters to be more broad then it was considered early. The modification method allows to calculate any parameters of the jet for the broad range of variation parameters from which the solution of this problem depends and distance where there are experimental date. This circumstance allows to make the comparison results of the modeling with the experimental date. The effects which are obtained for the jet calculation modeling are discussed in this paper also.
