The use of Corona (Transient Plasma) discharge as an ignition source alternative to spark ignition (SI) for a Natural Gas fired engine presents an opportunity for increased efficiency and reduced NOx emissions. The multiple ignition sites created by a Corona discharge produce a faster and more complete burn than conventional SI. Bench tests show a faster combustion rise time (∼3×) and higher peak combustion pressures with corona discharge compared to SI. There are challenges encountered in retrofitting a corona discharge ignition system onto an IC engine. Electrode design and placement are critical in preventing arc formation and engine knock.
