Electrical Modification of Combustion and the Affect of Electrode Geometry on the Field Produced

Electrical Modification of Combustion and the Affect of Electrode Geometry on the Field Produced

There has been extensive work to show how electric fields can influence combustion. However, many different set ups are used. This work shows how different set ups produce different field strengths and that the field is not always uniformly distributed. The field strength is modelled using Ansys Max...
