Nonstationary process of ion bunch acceleration in flat diode was investigated. Accurate self-consistent solution for Vlasov equation was obtained. Current dependence from longitudinal emittance, ion sound velocity and rate of anode potential value growth was found, and current density value is shown to exceed Child-Langmuir limit current.
