Abstract:Here, we report on the optimized design for the needle‐to‐plane electrode geometry to generate the atmospheric air streamer‐to‐spark transition discharge over the surface of the water at the pulsed voltage of ±30 kV. This design contributes to an increase in the electric field at the head of air surface streamers during their propagation, which eventually evolves into a spark over water. The length of streamer‐to‐spark transition discharge is up to 150 mm, which is affected by the conductivity of water, the el… Show more
