A simple model of spark gap discharge phase

الملخص EN

A simple computational model is established to simulate the spark gap discharge phase.

The proposed computational approach is based on Rompe-Weizel model for the resistive phase of the spark discharge where the plasma resistance decreases dramatically and rapidly during this phase converting the gap from a non-conducting (off) state to a conducting (on) state .

Results obtained from this model are compared with some available published data and acceptable agreements are obtained.
