Abstract

AbstractIn this paper, we measured the electrical potential distribution of surface dielectric barrier discharges (SDBD) caused by alternating voltage in synthetic air and nitrogen using the Pockels effect. It was shown that different potential distributions of filament thickness and length are generated in synthetic air and nitrogen. A filament analysis based on mathematical morphology was performed to quantify the geometric characteristics of the filaments produced in each gas atmosphere. The results show that the discharge filament thickness and the entropy in the filament direction depend on the oxygen ratio and the magnitude of the applied voltage.
