利用水电极介质阻挡放电装置,采用电学方法和发射光谱,研究了空气中介质阻挡放电从微放电丝模式向均匀放电模式转化的过程.结果表明,大气压下增大外加电压或者电压一定减小气压,放电都能够从微放电丝模式过渡到均匀模式.高气压下放电为流光击穿而低气压下为辉光放电.利用放电发射光谱,研究了高能电子比例随实验参数的变化.结果表明气压减小时高能电子比例增大,电压增加时高能电子减少.利用壁电荷理论对以上实验结果进行了定性分析.结果对介质阻挡均匀放电的深入研究具有重要价值.
The transition from filamentary discharge to uniform discharge in a device with water electrodes is studied in air by electrical method and emission spectroscopy. Results show that discharge can transit from filamentary mode to uniform mode by increasing the applied voltage or decreasing the gas pressure. The discharge mechanism at high pressure is the streamer and that at low pressure is glow discharge. The relations of the number of high-energy electons and experimental parameters were studied by optical emission spectroscopy. The results show that high-energy electrons increases in number with decreasing gas pressure and decreases with increasing applied voltage. The experimental results are explained qualitatively based on the theory of wall charge. The results are of value for the study of uniform discharge in dielectric barrier discharge.
