Experimental Investigation of the Applied Voltage Influence on the Consumed Power of Surface DBDs with Different Dielectric Barrier Materials
摘要
This study investigates the influence of applied voltage and dielectric material on the power consumption of Surface Dielectric Barrier Discharge (SDBD) systems. Three SDBD configurations, employing Alumina, Quartz, and Mica as dielectric barriers, were examined. The power consumption was accurately quantified using the Lissajous method by monitoring the charge-voltage characteristics to evaluate how dielectric properties affect discharge behavior under varying voltages ranging from 3 to 8 kV. The results indicate that power consumption rises with increasing voltage for all configurations, with the rate of increase strongly dependent on the dielectric material. These differences are attributed to variations in dielectric constant, thermal conductivity, and charge storage capacity, which govern discharge dynamics and energy transfer efficiency. The findings offer a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between applied voltage, dielectric properties, and energy demand in SDBD systems, providing valuable guidance for optimizing plasma-assisted surface treatment applications.
