    Coli bacteria inactivation by pulsed corona discharge in water

    No full text
    The inactivation of coli bacteria during pulsed corona discharge in the river water was investigated. The bacterial suspension of volume 157 ml was polluted with E. coli and total coli with concentration of 230 cfu/100 cm3 and 1500 cfu/100 cm3, respectively. The processing was conducted in tube reactor with hollow needle-rod electrode system. The 2 min. of treatment caused decrease of total coli concentration by three orders of magnitude leaving only 3 cfu/100 cm3, The same final concentration was obtained for E. coli. Obtained energy efficiency was 0.15 cfu/J, which was a result of low bacteria initial concentration and too high specific energy density

    Comparison of He-Cd' White-Light Laser Oscillations in Longitudinal and Transverse Hollow-Cathode Tubes

    No full text
    Abstract-The results of a direct comparison of laser oscillations in two different hollow-cathode discharges, i.e., longitudinal and transverse, used for exciting the blue (441.6 nm), green (533.7 nm and 537.8 nm), and red (636.0 nm) lines of the Cd+-ion in an He-Cd mixture are presented. The design of the discharge tube, which allows a direct comparison of the laser properties of both discharges in the same hollow-cathode segments and laser cavity is shown. The results showed the superiority of the longitudinal hollow-cathode discharge in generating the blue, green, and red lines simultaneously. The transverse hollowcathode discharge more efficiently generates the green lines if the other laser lines are absent. This suggests the application of the longitudinal hollow-cathode discharge for white-light He-Cd+ lasers

    Electrohydrodynamic flow in a wire-plate non-thermal plasma reactor measured by 3D PIV method

    No full text
    This work was aimed at measurements of the electrohydrodynamic (EHD) secondary flow in a non-thermal plasma reactor using three-dimensional particle image velocimetry (3D PIV) method. The wide-type non-thermal plasma reactor used in this work was an acrylic box with a wire discharge electrode and two plate collecting electrodes. The positive DC voltage was applied to the wire electrode through a 10 MΩ resistor. The collecting electrodes were grounded. The voltage applied to the wire electrode was 28 kV. Air flow seeded with a cigarette smoke was blown along the reactor duct with an average velocity of 0.6 m/s. The 3D PIV velocity fields measurements were carried out in four parallel planes stretched along the reactor duct, perpendicularly to the wire electrode and plate electrodes. The measured flow velocity fields illustrate complex nature of the EHD induced secondary flow in the non-thermal plasma reactor

    Instantaneous and time-averaged velocity fields in a wide electrostatic precipitator

    National audienceThis work was aimed at clarifying whether the electrohydrodynamic (EHD) flow in a relatively wide electrostatic precipitator (ESP) (width:height = 2) is 2- or 3- dimensional (3D). The previous our measurements of 3D timeaveraged flow velocity fields suggested that the flow in the ESP duct centre is almost 2-dimensional. In this paper we present both the 3D instantaneous and time-averaged flow velocity fields in a relatively wide ESP (width:height = 2). The ESP used in this work was an acrylic parallelepiped with a negatively polarized wire discharge electrode and two plate collecting electrodes. The velocity field was measured using Particle Image Velocimetry in the observation midplane along the ESP

    Multi - DBD actuator with floating inter - electrode for aerodynamic control

    No full text
    In this paper the use of a floating inter-electrode in a multi-DBD (dielectric barrier discharge) plasma actuator is described. The multi-DBD plasma actuators with floating inter-electrodes were investigated to get a longer DBD on a dielectric surface and to maximise generated net airflow. Our actuator was used to control the boundary layer flow separation around NACA0012 airfoil model. The results of our investigations suggests that multi-DBD actuators with floating inter-electrodes can be attractive for aerodynamic purposes
