A study of direct-current surface discharge plasma for a Mach 3 supersonic flow control
A direct-current, non-equilibrium surface glow discharge plasma in the presence of a Mach 2.85 flow is studied experimentally for flow control applications. The discharge is generated with pin-like electrodes flush mounted on a ceramic plate with sustaining currents from 25 mA to 300 mA. In the …

Nutrient Transport in the Lake Poinsett System
… 1, 1970 to April 1, 1971. An annual 2.07x 10~ m3 surface discharge into Lake Poinsett transported 1.66 x 104 kg (PO4) phosphorus, 1.28 x 104 kg nitrate nitrogen, and 3.90 x 104 kg organic carbon. The Big Sioux River-Dry Lake system contributed 63% of the phosphorus, 45% of the nitrate nitrogen, …

Insulation Design, Assessment and Monitoring Methods to Eliminate Partial Discharge in SiC-based Medium Voltage Converters
… is necessary and important to eliminate Partial Discharge (PD) for such power converters, since the converter system is vulnerable to PDs. Developing an insulation design, assessment and online monitoring method to help reach a compact and PD free insulation system for MV SiC-based converters is …

Ignition and flameholding in supersonic flow by injection of dissociated hydrogen
… pyrophoric mixture of silane and hydrogen, and a surface discharge device. Hydrogen-fueled supersonic combustion tests were conducted at conditions similar to those described earlier. Hydrogen atoms generated by the plasma torch proved to be the most effective ignition source, causing ignition for …
