Abstract: | The change in the distribution pattern of negative ions HO–, NOx-_{x}^{-} and COx-_{x}^{-} observed on arbitrary point-to-plane electrode configuration has been investigated by varying the angle of needle to the
plane electrode, under atmospheric pressure corona discharge
conditions. The stationary inhomogeneous electric field distributions between the point-to-plane electrodes with arbitrary
needle angle were calculated. The experimental and theoretical results obtained suggested that the negative ion evolutions
progress along field lines established between
the electrodes with arbitrary configurations and the resulting terminal ion formation on a given field line is attributable
to the electric field strength on the needle tip surface where the field line arose. The NOx-_{x}^{-} and COx-_{x}^{-} ions were dominantly produced on the field lines arising from the needle tip apex region with the highest electric field
strength, while the field lines emanating from the tip peripheral regions with lower field strength resulted in the formation
of the HO– ion. |
