  Based on the publication by M. Venturini, et al.[1] a computer program has been written that solves the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation numerically on a two dimensional grid. In this code different types of longitudinal interactions and their combinations are implemented like the shielded CSR- as well as the purely resistive and inductive interactions of the electrons within the bunch. The details of the program will be presented in the paper. Calculations have been performed for the 1.7 GeV storage ring BESSY II and the 600 MeV ring MLS. The results are compared with measurements on both rings which were based on the observation of the onset of bursts of coherent synchrotron radiation. Fair agreement is found between theoretical and experimental observations. The theoretical results complement calculations performed by Bane, et al. for the shielded CSR-interaction [2]. The new results emphasize the resistive nature of the CSR-Interaction, especially in regions where shielding effects are small.
