Theoretical Analysis of Ionization in Long-Term Air Discharge Plasmas at Atmospheric Pressure

Theoretical Analysis of Ionization in Long-Term Air Discharge Plasmas at Atmospheric Pressure

Present investigations are devoted to analysis of air ionization at large spatial and timescales which can be realized in plasma devices. A numerical analysis of plasma creation and gas heating has been made for dry and humid air at atmospheric pressure. Sharp explosion-type rise of electron concent...

Description
Summary:Present investigations are devoted to analysis of air ionization at large spatial and timescales which can be realized in plasma devices. A numerical analysis of plasma creation and gas heating has been made for dry and humid air at atmospheric pressure. Sharp explosion-type rise of electron concentrations and gas temperature at long times have been obtained.
