Radiation Intensity Profiles at Different Stages of the Formation of Apokamp Discharge

Resumo

Experimental studies of the heat release processes in the apokamp discharge were carried out via the plotting of intensity charts. The procedure was verified with measurement techniques similar to those used in the operation of a disappearing filament pyrometer. A criterion was formulated for its applicability for the study of apokamp discharge in air. The intensity charts obtained at different stages of the formation of discharge confirm the need for gas heating near the discharge channel to form streamers.
