Кинетический механизм нагрева разрядной плазмы воздуха, связанный с взаимодействием электронов с тонкой структурой основного состояния атомарного кислорода



Kinetic mechanism of air discharge plasma heating is connected with electron interaction with fine structure of atomic oxygen ground state

Kinetic mechanism of air discharge plasma heating based on electron interaction wit fine structure levels of atomic oxygen have been considered. The dependences of heating rate kept within (0.2-4)х10-12хneх[O] eV/cm3хs at Tg = 300 3000 K, E/N = 5 140 Td and degree of oxygen dissociationи from zero upto total one were obtained. The efficiency of heating in pulse discharges with limit conditions have been examined. It was shown that efficiency of considered mechanism turns out a negligible one in comparison with other known heating mechanisms.

Рассмотрен кинетический механизм нагрева воздушной газоразрядной плазмы, основанный на взаимодействии электронов с уровнями тонкой структуры основного состояния кислорода. Получены зависимости скорости нагрева, укладывающиеся в диапазон (0.2-4)х10-12хneх[O] эВ/см3хс при Tg = 300 3000 K, E/N = 5 140 Тд и степени диссоциации кислорода воздуха от нулевой до полной. Рассмотрена эффективность механизма нагрева в импульсных газовых разрядах с предельными характеристиками. Показано, что эффективность рассмотренного механизма пренебрежима в сравнении другими известными.
