In this paper we describe in detail the application of laser induced fluorescence (LIF) to the OH density measurement in a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) at atmospheric pressure in ArH2O, HeH2O mixtures, and with small N2 additions. Measurements are reported in which OH density is measured in a pulsed DBD, together with its decay in the post-discharge. The variation of macroscopic discharge parameters, such as the applied voltage, the water vapour content, the gas mixture composition and the discharge duration, has a large effect on the OH loss rate and a smaller one on OH density. These effects are described and briefly discussed as a valuable help for the understanding of the complex microscopic kinetics of water containing discharges

Abstract
In this paper we describe in detail the application of laser induced fluorescence (LIF) to the OH density measurement in a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) at atmospheric pressure in ArH2O, HeH2O mixtures, and with small N2 additions. Measurements are reported in which OH density is measured in a pulsed DBD, together with its decay in the post-discharge. The variation of macroscopic discharge parameters, such as the applied voltage, the water vapour content, the gas mixture composition and the discharge duration, has a large effect on the OH loss rate and a smaller one on OH density. These effects are described and briefly discussed as a valuable help for the understanding of the complex microscopic kinetics of water containing dischargesI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
