Discharge regime transition in a single pulse can present the breakdown mechanism of nanosecond pulsed dielectric barrier discharge. In this paper, regime transitions between streamer, diffuse, and surface discharges in nanosecond pulsed dielectric barrier discharge are studied experimentally using high resolution temporal–spatial spectra and instantaneous exposure images. After the triggering time of 2–10 ns, discharge was initiated with a stable initial streamer channel propagation. Then, transition of streamer-diffuse modes could be presented at the time of 10–34 ns, and a surface discharge can be formed sequentially on the dielectric plate. In order to analyze the possible reason for the varying discharge regimes in a single discharge pulse, the temporal–spatial distribution of vibrational population of molecular nitrogen N2 (C3Πu, v = 0,1,2) and reduced electric field were calculated by the temporal–spatial emission spectra. It is found that at the initial time, a distorted high reduced electric field was formed near the needle electrode, which excited the initial streamer. With the initial streamer propagating to the dielectric plate, the electric field was rebuilt, which drives the transition from streamer to diffuse, and also the propagation of surface discharge.

AbstractDestruction of ethane in corona discharge was studied using a tubular coaxial wire AC high-voltage dielectric barrier discharge flow reactor coupled to a GC/MS and a quadrupole mass-spectrometer. The experi­ments were performed at ambient temperature (295 ± 3 K) and pressure (1.00 ± 0.04 bar). Mixtures of 12, 109, 1033 and 10000 ppm ethane in synthetic air (21% O

Dielectric Barrier Discharge was produced by applying high voltage AC source of frequency (10-30 KHz) and potential difference of (0-20) kV across two parallel plate electrodes with glass as dielectric barrier. Optical emission spectroscopy was used for the characterization of the discharge produced at atmospheric pressure. The emission spectra in the range of 200 nm to 850 nm have been analyzed to estimate the electron temperature by line intensity ratio method. The results showed that the electron temperature is about 0.9 eV.

In this paper, experimental results of atmospheric pressure dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) produced in air and nitrogen gas have been presented. The discharge was generated using a high voltage (0-20 kV) power supply operating at 10-30 kHz in hemispherical electrodes system with dielectric barrier of glass between the electrodes. Optical emission spectroscopy was used for the characterization of the discharge produced at atmospheric pressure. The emission spectra in the range of 200 nm to 450 nm have been analyzed to estimate the electron temperature by line intensity ratio method. The results show that the electron temperature is about 0.70 eV in air and 0.71 in nitrogen.
