The Main Plasma Chemical Process of Nitric Oxide Production by Arc Discharge

摘要

By adopting the optical multi-channel analyzer combined with fourier transform infrared（FTIR） spectrometer,the dominant free radicals and products generated by arc discharge were measured and studied,and the main plasma chemical reaction process in the nitric oxide production by arc discharge was identified.Plasma chemical kinetic curves of O,O2,N2,N and NO were simulated by using CHEMKIN and MATLAB.The results show that the main plasma chemical reaction process of nitric oxide production by arc discharge is a replacement reaction between O and N2,where NO can be generated instantaneously when discharging reaches stable.
