Numerical calculations with time dependant one-dimensional fluid model are performed at various conditions in argon atmospheric pressure to calculate electrical characteristics and plasma parameters including charged and metastable molecules densities. The simulation results show after steady discharge are formed, the voltage of discharge gap nearly remain constant and the phase is 0.36π advance of the applied voltage; The current density are in the same period as the applied voltage, the phase is 0.58π ahead of the applied voltage; The steady state Ar are in high number density in the whole discharge gap; The Ar* number density appear peak at the middle of the discharge gap; The Ar+ number density appear peak in the negative bright area.

The homogeneous barrier discharge with multiple current pulses at atmospheric pressure in helium is numerically studied on the basis of one-dimensional fluid model .The influence of the applied periodic polygonal function voltage slope to the intervals of the corresponding current pulses and the power are discussed and analyzed.The simulation results show that ,in the case of invariable voltage amplitude and variable voltage slope,the number of current pulses , intervals of the corresponding current pulses and the operating factor of the power are changing.

A one-dimensional particle-in-cell/Monte Carlo (PIC/MCC) model of low-pressure capacitive discharges with a large discharge gap is presented in the paper. The results from the model are for the dependence of the plasma parameters on the pressure and on the discharge radius. The study is directed to the heating mechanisms in the discharge. It is shown that the ohmic (Joule) heating in the plasma bulk could act simultaneously with the stochastic heating in the region of the plasma–sheath boundary. In confirmation of the results of the model, experimental results showing qualitatively the same behaviour are presented.

The dynamics of atmospheric pressure glow discharges in coaxial tube have been numerically studied by a self-consist, one-dimensional fluid model. An asymmetric discharge current pulse, which operated in glow mode, was obtained in the cylindrical geometry. As the frequency or the voltage peak is increased, the discharge transits into a period-two state.

We present a study of the plasma generated by transversely excited atmospheric (TEA) CO2 laser irradiation of a basalt sample. The plasma was induced in air at atmospheric pressure. The same sample was also analyzed using a commercial LIBS system based on Nd:YAG laser and time-gated detection. The main plasma parameters, temperature, and electron number density were determined and analytical capabilities of the two systems compared. Despite differences in laser wavelength, pulse duration, applied fluence, and signal detection scheme, the two systems are comparable in terms of element detectability and limits of detection. In both cases, all elements usually present in geological samples were identified. The estimated limits of detection for most elements were below 100 ppm, while for Cu, Cr, and Sr they were around or below 10 ppm. The obtained results led to the conclusion that simple, cost-effective TEA CO2 LIBS system can find applications for geological explorations.

The experimental results on the gas temperature measurement in the active zone of streamer discharge in air at the atmospheric pressure are presented. The gas temperature value was obtained by the optical method for measur-ing the relative intensity of the rotational lines for the radiation of the second positive (II+) system of molecular ni-trogen, transition bands (С3Пu(0)→B3Пg(0)). It was found that in discharge gap d = 8 mm, depending on the ap-plied voltage (in the range of 6.1…7.8 kV with a step of 0.2 kV), the gas temperature varied from 609 to739 K. The unevenness of the gas temperature change in the active zone of discharge with the increase in the applied voltage is shown. This may be related to the possible changes in the rotational state of nitrogen molecules upon excitation of their electronic state by electrons.

The development of bonding technology and coating technologies require the use of modern materials and topologies for the demanding effect and modification of their wetting properties. For the industry, a process modification process that can be integrated into a process is the atmospheric pressure of air operation plasma surface treatment. This can be classified and evaluated based on the wettability, which has a significant impact on the adhesive force. The aim is to improve the wetting properties and to find the relationship between plasma treatment parameters, wetting, and adhesion. High Impact PolyStyrene (HIPS) was used as an experimental material, and then the plasma treatment can be treated with various adjustable parameters. The effect of plasma parameters on surface roughness, wetting contact angle, and using Fowkes theory of the surface energy have been investigated. Seven different plasma jet treatment distances were tested, combined with 5 scan speeds. Samples with the best plasma parameters were prepared from 25 mm × 25 mm overlapping adhesive joints using acrylic/cyanoacrylate. The possibility of creating a completely hydrophilic surface was achieved, where the untreated wetting edge angle decreased from 88.2° to 0° for distilled water and from 62.7° to 0° in the case of ethylene glycol. The bonding strength of High Impact PolyStyrene was increased by plasma treatment by 297%.

One of the main oscillatory modes found ubiquitously in Hall thrusters is the so-called breathing mode. This is recognized as a relatively low-frequency (10–30 kHz), longitudinal oscillation of the discharge current and plasma parameters. In this paper, we present a synergic experimental and numerical investigation of the breathing mode in a 5 kW-class Hall thruster. To this aim, we propose the use of an informed 1D fully-fluid model to provide augmented data with respect to available experimental measurements. The experimental data consists of two datasets, i.e., the discharge current signal and the local near-plume plasma properties measured at high-frequency with a fast-diving triple Langmuir probe. The model is calibrated on the discharge current signal and its accuracy is assessed by comparing predictions against the available measurements of the near-plume plasma properties. It is shown that the model can be calibrated using the discharge current signal, which is easy to measure, and that, once calibrated, it can predict with reasonable accuracy the spatio-temporal distributions of the plasma properties, which would be difficult to measure or estimate otherwise. Finally, we describe how the augmented data obtained through the combination of experiments and calibrated model can provide insight into the breathing mode oscillations and the evolution of plasma properties.
