Abstract

The emission spectra of a column of a direct-current discharge in open air which is performed between two tap-water electrodes (two tap-water flows) are studied in the 240–450 nm spectral range. A comparison of the values of spectral emissivities is made between experimental spectra and the calculated spectra. The emission spectrum calculation is made for four molecules, N2, O2, NO and OH that are present in air plasma. The first part of this paper focuses on building the spectra calculation; the required data are detailed. In the second part, rotational, vibrational and excitational temperatures are determined with the Boltzmann distribution assumed on the quantum states. For that purpose, a comparison of the modelled spectra and the experimental spectra is made in the different parts of the discharge column.
