Abstract

In a nanosecond pulse discharge, the computational cost is high because of the characteristic time difference between the plasma and the flow. In order to reduce the computational cost, multi-scale modeling study of nanosecond pulse discharge plasma is needed. In this study, we developed and verified a non-equilibrium plasma solver for nanosecond-pulse Dielectric Barrier Discharge(NS-DBD) multi-scale modeling study. To simulate the non-equilibrium phenomena, 17 chemical species / 54 chemistry reaction models were used. The governing equations included chemical species continuity equations, a electrical potential equation, and Navier-Stokes equations. Numerical results show that streamer velocity and micro shock wave speed are comparable to those of other experimental results. This study is expected to contribute to the future study of NS-DBD multi-scale modeling.
