A comprehensive database on air plasma kinetics

The kinetic models described in this thesis are of great importance because they can be used to understand the chemical phenomena induced by electrical discharges in air. Experimental data obtained by the research group in the Physics Department of the University Milano Bicocca are compared with the numerical results. The study highlighted how the initial ozone formation is inhibited and cancelled by nitrogen oxidation processes. In this thesis, a comprehensive database on Air Plasma Kinetic reactions with rate coefficients is presented. The database were built from Park Model and Sakiyama Model. In both models, the references to rate coefficients vary from the real material, and not all the rate coefficients satisfy the references. The database built is made ready for implementation on ZDPlasKin software.
