Abstract:
Ozone has become a subject of several technical applications such as
disinfection, the treatment of color removal, purification of water and decomposition of
volatile hydrocarbons. Due to its numerous applications more research have been done to
improve ozone generation rates in pure oxygen and air. The objective of our study is to
produce ozone in the N2/O2 mixture by using pulsed corona discharge. The model represents
a homogenous pulsed corona discharge. It can describe the fundamental chemistry and
physics governing the discharge behaviour, and can predict the production of ozone under
various operating conditions. The model takes into consideration 117 reactions involving 19
species. The results of simulation show the effect of pressure and gas temperature on ozone
generation
