Abstract Dust in plasma is an important consideration for many processing experiments. Even in fusion relevant experiments, dust is an unavoidable particle. Hence, it is important to understand the overall dynamics of the particle inside the plasma chamber. In this paper, various forces on the dust particle and their nature is analyzed during the formation of sheath. Dust particles are assumed to be dropped via a dust dropper and the dynamics is pursued from the bulk of the plasma to the wall. Results are obtained for varying ion temperature and it is observed to yield important consequences both on the dust charging and overall dust dynamics.
