Fem-Fct Based Dynamic Simulation Of Trichel Pulse Corona Discharge In Point-Plane Configuration, Paria Sattari
Fem-Fct Based Dynamic Simulation Of Trichel Pulse Corona Discharge In Point-Plane Configuration, Paria Sattari
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
In this thesis, a new two-dimensional numerical solver is presented for the dynamic simulation of the Trichel pulse regime of negative corona discharge in point-plane configuration. The goal of this thesis is to simulate the corona discharge phenomenon and to improve the existing models so that the results have an acceptable compatibility with the experimentally obtained data. The numerical technique used in this thesis is a combination of Finite Element Method (FEM) and Flux Corrected Transport (FCT). These techniques are proved to be the best techniques, presented so far for solving the nonlinear hyperbolic equations that simulate corona discharge phenomenon. …
