The streamer discharge propagation within normal hexane and acetone liquids

الملخص EN

Based on the streamer growth model, the streamer discharge propagation was simulated in aid of finite element technique.

That was done within two non- mixed dielectric liquids (Normal-Hexane and Acetone) located between two electrodes in pin-plane configuration.

The output results show that, the path of the streamer was affected by the interface between the two liquids ; the streamer path crosses this interface under some conditions such as the permittivity of the liquids and the distance between this interface and the tip of the pin.

Under other conditions, the streamer path grows along the interface.

The results were assisted by the development of the potential and the electric field distributions with the growth of the streamer propagation within the configuration.
