Аннотация:The spatial uniformity of combustion in a gas mixture initiated by a high-voltage nanosecond volume discharge has been investigated at gas pressures of 0.3–2.4 atm and temperatures of 1100–2250 K. The experiments were carried out behind a reflected shock wave propagating in a mixture of methane and air diluted with argon. The autoignition time and the time of discharge-induced ignition were determined. It was found that, at relatively low pressures (0.5 atm), the discharge significantly decreased the ignition temperature (by 600 K). At higher pressures (1.5–2 atm), the ignition temperature fell by only 100 K. The emission from the discharge and combustion were registered with a nanosecond ICCD camera under various experimental conditions. Comprehensive measurements of the deposited energy and the waveforms of the discharge voltage and current with a nanosecond time resolution made it possible to determine the efficiency of this type of discharge for igniting combustible mixtures
