ELECTRODES WITH HIGH ASPECT RATIO FOR PLASMA GENERATION

원문 (중국어)

A plasma generating system having an igniter or other plasma generator for use in low pressure environments, such as occurs in aviation. Combustion is initiated with an electrode configuration having a large usable area of electrodes for high current plasma discharge over a longer length of the electrodes, resulting in a long useful life of the plasma generator. The plasma generation system includes circuitry that generates and propagate plasma along the electrodes by a Lorentz force and a thermal force using high currents that move the plasma along the electrodes without causing a destructive material state change in the electrodes.
