Degree Regimes of the CO2 Dissociation Process in Non-Thermal Plasma

Ionization Degree Regimes of the CO2 Dissociation Process in Non-Thermal Plasma 

Analysis of the three characteristic time scales - Tev (residence time in discharge zone), Tp (effective reaction time in after-glow), and tvt (vibrational relaxation time) - shows that only the first is determined by ionization degree n jno, whereas the two others are connected (Tp Tvt). The analysis determines three ionization degree regimes of the process stimulated by vibrational excitation. 

High ionization degree. The CO2 dissociation process including the after-glow reaction in this regime is completed before the thermal explosion  

The ionization degree required for this, the most energy-effective regime, should satisfy the requirement somewhat stronger than (5-48)  

The energy efficiency of the plasma-chemical processes is usually divided into three factors excitation factor relaxation factor ()]rei), and chemical factor ()]chem)- The most
