This paper presents the results of analyses of the transient resistance and inductance of spark plasma, parameters which have been obtained using the hydrodynamic approach described in [2], and a new model for plasma resistance. A lumped RLC model to represent the transient process in the spark-discharge plasma has been built and solved using PSpice simulation software. The dynamic plasma resistance, R(t), and inductance, L(t), have been used in the lumpedelement circuit.

“…Braginskii's hydrodynamic equation for plasma radius is also used by other authors and has been proved to provide a reasonable fit to experimental data [3,5,9,10]. For the purpose of continuity and comparison with literature results, equation (1) is also used in this paper:…”

“…Here the reactor types, electrode geometry, source of power to ignite, medium of the plasma discharge are important factors for generation of effective and economical plasma generation. Several researchers have engaged with DC source, AC source, high voltage pulse source like Marx generator, Blumlein line stack generator or compressed magnetic pulse source depending on their usages [22,23].…”

The surge in the population growth rate and a manifold increase in the use of vehicles which affects the greenery of the earth, has promulgated the need for innovations in Transient Plasma Ignition (TPI) systems. This study signifies how important that an Internal Combustion Engine (ICE), which is used in automobiles, must use a system that reduces the emission of harmful gases released during the combustion and emission phases. TPI system is concentrated as its high energy producing features can very well ignite biogas which requires a very high temperature to burn. Biogas being a renewable source of energy, also adds to the benefit of using it. This study also emphasizes the need for using biogas for preserving the greenery of the environment. Combating the NO X emissions has now become so challenging that many research works are being carried out to reduce its emission during fuel exhaust. The ability of TPI incorporated with biogas to reduce NO X gas emission during the exhaust process of ICE is studied. TPI, on comparison with other non-thermal low efficient transient plasmas was found to be better in igniting the renewable biogas completely.

“…Engel et al 1 reviewed these calculations and compared them with the experimental results by Akiyama et al, 2 who measured the current for arcs through air at various pressures and arc lengths. The resistances for the arcs were then calculated from the current and a circuit model of the experiment.…”

“…An agreement for the resistance at all times was achieved by combining 1) Engel's proposed equation for time dependence of the radius that is an integral of a function of the current and 2) an equation in one of the reviewed theories 3 that gave the resistance of the arc as a function of the current. A close examination of the current and the circuit model used by Akiyama et al 2 to derive the arc resistance, however, showed that this arc resistance can be questioned.…”
