Study on Influencing Factors of Discharge Power for DBD Non-thermal Plasma
In order to research DBD (dielectric barrier discharge) discharge characteristics and raise its operating efficiency, the DBD non-thermal plasma power (P) was measured and its influencing factors like applied incentive peak voltage (V), discharge frequency (f), discharge gap (lg) and barrier thickness (ld) were studied with Q-V graphic method. The results show that, the increase of V leads to the increase of P; the increase of f may promote the increase of P when the value of V keeps constant and the larger f will accelerate the increase of P with V; the increase of lg will also help the increase of P , but the larger lg will increase hot loss and easily bring about the dielectric breakdown; the decrease of ld similarly will also cause the increase of P , but the smaller ld will also induce dielectric breakdown.
