In many plasma based applications, surface flashover cannot be avoided. Repetitive exposure of such surface flashover (also termed as an arc), can deteorate the surface properties of the material. Depending upon the arc locations, and arc frequency ultimately it may reduce the functional life of the material. Hence developing an understanding of such arcing phenomenon on various substrate’s...

Non-thermal plasma generated by pulsed discharge is expected to efficiently treat combustion exhaust gases such as nitrogen oxide (NOx) and sulfur oxide (SOx) due to its high chemical activity. Nanosecond pulsed discharge which has voltage rise time and fall time of 2ns, pulse width 5 ns and peak value of 60 kV, has been developed by our group. Nanosecond pulsed discharge mainly consists of...

In conventional water treatment, waste water is purified by a biological method. However, this method has some problems, such as dissipation of time, high cost for treatment, necessity of large facilities, and existence of some pollutants that are not easily to be decomposed. Therefore, the development of advanced water treatment technologies that can solve those problems is required.

Molybdenum carbide (MoC) is used extensively in many industrial applications especially as catalysis replacing the expensive noble metals. Nano sizing of the material provides high surface area for reaction. Many processes are used to synthesize MoC nanoparticles (NPs). Those techniques involve multiple steps and a specific choice of precursors with long preparation time. In the present work,...

It has been suggested that the movement factors of cathode spot are the electromagnetic force and force caused by pressure gradient. However, the quantitative force values causing movement has not been disclosed. In this paper, the movement factors of vacuum arc clarified that either electromagnetic force or force caused by pressure gradient is $9.98\times 10^4$ ~ $6.87\times 10^5$ N/m$^3$ ....

The atmospheric pressure arc deflects and becomes unstable in the case of strong cross wind. For example, the weld defects such as the lack of penetration and blow hole caused by the contamination of nitrogen in weld pool are caused by arc deflection. It is necessary to elucidate the contamination process of nitrogen under consideration of flow field derived from cross wind in order to prevent...
