In the manufacturing of high voltage electrical equipment, an important step to guarantee a right dielectric design can be carried out through the prediction of a possible occurrence of the corona effect or, in the worst case, of dielectric breakdown, preferably in early stages. For this ... Read More
The state of the art technology is moving towards more complex and multidisciplinary processes and systems. There is a growing interest in using Multi-physics simulations to have a better understating of the underpinning science of the processes as well as providing cost-effective ... Read More
COMSOL Multiphysics® with LiveLink™ for Matlab® is used for the numerical analysis of dielectric barrier discharges (DBD), which are widely used in various fields of plasma technology, such as surface processing, plasma medicine, and agriculture. The fluid model comprises balance ... Read More
Corona discharge in atmospheric-pressure air has been the subject of a vast number of theoretical studies for many years. However, a theoretical description of gas breakdown development still has some difficulties due to both a wide range of initial conditions, under which gas breakdown ... Read More
Accumulation of plastic solid waste is a large share of municipal solid waste (MSW). Thermochemical treatment processes are a vital component of a sustainable integrated MSW management since they reduce the volume of the waste significantly. In conjunction with our efforts to develop ... Read More
Thermal decomposition of plastic waste results in gas products, mainly hydrocarbon molecules (C2-C6), which cannot be released to the atmosphere for environmental reasons. Here, we propose a secondary gas treatment to decompose the hydrocarbon gas products into smaller molecules by ... Read More

Atmospheric-pressure plasma jets (APPJ) are devices that generate chemically reactive species and operate at atmospheric pressure and ambient temperature for a wide range of applications. Plasmas jets produce charged particles (electrons and ions), neutral metastable species, radicals, ... Read More
Although SF6 gas is characterized by a strong global warming potential, traditionally, it has been employed universally as the dielectric insulation gas for most electrical equipment because of its excellent technical performances. With the emergence of environmental regulations for ... Read More
In 2016 the group of experimentalists from the Institute of High Current Electronics (Tomsk, Russian Federation) have been discovered a novel phenomenon related to atmospheric plasma jets that was called an “apokamp” (originated from Greek words “off the bend”). This new plasma jet ... Read More
