Abstract
The motion state of ion wind in discharge channel is analyzed for different discharge configurations by experimental method and numerical simulation, as well as analysis on electro-hydrodynamic theory. The conception of inception voltage of ion wind is proposed; the velocity of ion wind is obtained near the plate electrode and that near the wire as functions of the applied voltage. A model to simulate wire-plate discharge is established and the ion wind is simulated in discharge channel by this model through replacing the ion wind by the dynamic wind. Furthermore, the reason is given to explain the error between the simulated velocity and experimental one and that between simulated velocity and theoretical one. The simulated results also show that a double-helix structure distribution of ion wind exists in the discharge channel. The results provide a necessary theoretical support for the research on the interactions between different kinds of materials in discharge channel.
