Positive and negative streamers in ambient air: measuring diameter, velocity and dissipated energy

Positive and negative streamers in ambient air: measuring diameter, velocity and dissipated energy

Positive and negative streamers are studied in ambient air at 1 bar; they emerge from a needle electrode placed 40 mm above a planar electrode.The amplitudes of the applied voltage pulses range from 5 to 96 kV; most pulses have rise times of 30 ns or shorter.Diameters, velocities and energies …
