Measurement of Ions Penetration Pattern in Point to Grid Atmospheric Corona Discharge

Abstract

Atmospheric plasma which has many scientific and engineering applications is a complicated phenomena because of interaction between ions, fields and neutrals. For more accurate modeling and better use of corona phenomena which is a kind of atmospheric plasma, some experimental measurements have been done in the case of point to grid corona problem and relative ion penetration pattern behind the grid has been measured. Also the measurement probe is discussed and some simple models are introduced for the pattern, then a one dimensional simulation result based on statistical equations has been presented to be compared with measurements. #
