Abstract

Characteristics of the atmospheric non-thermal ac arc air plasmas produced by a plasma generator with a floating electrode are investigated. The measurements show that, with the help of the surface dielectric barrier discharges between the main electrodes and the floating electrode, the ignition voltage of the non-thermal arc discharges can be reduced significantly, and an arc discharge mode can be stabilized at high gas flow rates. The measured temperatures of the non-thermal arcs are at the level of 2000–3000 K under different operating conditions.
