OSTI ID:5378878
In order to confirm quantitatively the performance and characteristics of the plasma jet ignition in turbulent lean mixtures, combustion tests were carried out in a disk-shaped combustion chamber with lean turbulent methane-air mixtures. In the tests, the governing parameters of the plasma jet ignition such as the plasma cavity size, the orifice diameter, and the discharge energy were varied. In this paper characteristic lifetime and a characteristic length of the plasma jet and an entrainment volume of the mixture into the plasma jet is defined theoretically and expressed by the parameters of the plasma jet ignition.
