The optimal design and comparison of power supply for dielectric barrier discharge ozone reactor

It has been noticed that Dielectric Barrier Discharging (DBD) has a great potential as ozone radical and light source in medical and environmental industry. But, due to its operating pressure, it is impossible to measure its electrical characteristics in direct. For the first step, it is proceeded electrical modeling of planer types of DBD reactor by using 2-port circuit analysis method with DBD discharging mechanism to estimate the electrical characteristics of DBD reactor. Through the modeling of DBD reactor, 2 types of power supplies of the DBD reactor for achieving high efficient that indicates impedance matching with DBD reactor are analyzed. ��2009 IEEE
