Abstract: | Siemens made the first ozone generation system by corona discharge about hundred and fifty years ago. At present mainly two types of atmospheric pressure electrical discharges - corona discharge and dielectric barrier discharge are used for production of ozone. Another type of discharge, which can be used for this purpose, is multineedle to plate electrical discharge enhanced by the gas flow. Contrary to the conventional arrangement when the gas is flowing around the needles we studied the discharge in which the gas was pumped through the needles. Results of studies of ozone and nitrogen oxides production by DC electrical discharge in air at atmospheric pressure with a single hollow needle to plate electrode configuration enhanced by the flow of air through the needle for both polarities of the needle, different airflow rates and currents are presented in this paper. |
