Influence of water vapour on the propagation speed and mean energy of an atmospheric non-equilibrium diffuse discharge in air under very high electric fields
Résumé
Results on light intenisty profiles: Plane V = 80kV Pin * Faster propagation as voltage increases. * Linear propagation until the discharge reaches about 3/4 of the gap. * Acceleration close to the plane, Stronger acceleration in humid air. * Existence of a threshold of relative humidity (RH) around 30% above which the propagation speed is affected. * Significant slowing down effect on propagation speed for voltages >65kV. * Non-linear evolution of the propagation speed for RH beyond this threshold. * Linear evolution of propagation speed for high RH At high humidity, possible influence of water molecular aggregates on the propagation speed maybe through electronic attachment, electronic fragmentation, photon absorption… * Low temperature around 300K ± 40K at 65kV, around 320K ± 20K at 75kV and around 330K at 85kV * Little temperature increase with voltage peak. * No influence of the presence of water vapour on the gas temperature * Constant mean energy with water vapour.
* At voltages close to 65kV, the mean energy is about 4mJ (±1mJ). At 75kV, it reaches at 16mJ (±1mJ) and at 85kV, 32mJ (±4mJ). Spectroscopic parameters : * Spatial integration over all the discharge volume * 10 ns time average * 2400 gr/mm for good spectral resolution
