A self-consistent kinetic model is presented for DC flowing glow discharges in N{sub 2} - O{sub 2}. The results of this model are compared to a large set of experimental data obtained in a N{sub 2} - O{sub 2} discharge excited in a 16 mm diameter pyrex tube at p = 2 Torr for discharge currents I = 15, 30 and 80 mA, a flow rate Q = 100 sccm and O{sub 2} percentages 0 {le} {delta} {le} 100%. The variations of electron density, gas temperature, reduced electric field, vibrational N{sub 2} temperature and the concentration of N atoms versus {delta} values are presented in this work.
