Abstract

This paper deals with the numerical simulation of the Trichel pulse corona discharge in air under the room temperature and atmospheric pressure in the pin-plane configuration. A simplified drift-diffusion model of the discharge is considered with three species: electrons, positive and negative ions. The Total Variation Diminishing algorithm is used to stabilize the charge transport equations. The effect of the voltage level and the external circuit parameters on the average corona current, pulse frequency and pulse parameters are presented. The results of numerical predictions are compared with the experimental data.
