Branch structure of corona discharge: experimental simulation and chemical properties

  • 1. Tianjin Univ., Tianjin (China). School of Chemical Engineering and Technology

Description

The branch structure of corona discharge has been investigated via C2H2 corona discharge. Carbon filament with excellent branch structure is formed in the discharge. This carbon filament offers a direct mimic of the branch structure of corona discharge. It provides a very useful way to study on the average energy, physical and chemical characteristics of corona discharge. On this basis, the chemical property of corona discharge for methane conversion is discussed. (authors)
