Abstract
Ignition of combustible air/propane mixture in a high-speed flow with a microwave streamer discharge is considered. The experimental results of structure of streamer discharge and quantities at various pressures are presented. Pressure and temperature measurements in various sections of the streamer discharge in high-speed flow are analysed. The results obtained demonstrate the possibility of ignition of air/propane combustible mixture. The main physical mechanisms responsible for heating the discharge plasma to the ignition temperature of the combustible mixture and their characteristic time scales are discussed. The minimum time and minimum level of microwave radiation required to ignite a combustible mixture under various conditions are determined.
