Abstract

A theoretical equation has been derived in this paper for calculation of ozone generation by positive dc corona discharge in coaxial wire-cylinder reactors. The derived equation has been based on the theories of the positive dc coronas reported in the literature and extended to account the ozone destruction within the corona discharge plasma generated in the reactor. The equation has been investigated with experimental results for ozone generated in a coaxial wire-cylinder reactor under different discharge conditions. The reactor was stressed with a positive dc voltage and fed by dry air flowing with constant rates at atmospheric pressure and room temperature. The theoretical results calculated by the derived equation have shown good agreement with the experimental results over the whole range of the investigated parameters. Subsequently, the derived equation is valid to predict the ozone concentration generated in the investigated reactor under any discharge conditions.
