A collisional-radiative numerical model is developed for studies of radiative losses and ion abundances in aluminum plasmas. Atomic processes such as collisional ionization and recombination, collisional excitation and dexcitation, radiation recombination, and spontaneous radiation are included. The dynamic results of ion abundances, radiation losses are discussed under the approximation of constant ion density and optically thin condition.
