| Research Abstract |
In this ignition system, both thermal and non-thermal plasmas are utilized actively. In this paper, the focus is placed on the clarification of ignition characteristics of non-thermal plasma. For this purpose, the ignition and combustion characteristics of non-thermal plasma are examined and compared with those of a conventional spark ignition. As a result, it is found that streamer discharge characterized by non-thermal plasma cannot only ignite combustible mixtures as well as conventional thermal plasma, but there are also some advantages, such as volumetric ignition.
