Effect of plasma assisted combustion on emissions of a premixed nitrous oxide fuel blend by Boj N. Villanueva, Po-Hung Lin, Yueh-Heng Li, Jaime P. Honra

“…This occurrence was speculated to be from the plasma promotion of the Prompt NO pathway in lean conditions, which was supported by greatly increased OH* radical concentrations. Other emissions such as the Unburned Hydrocarbon CH4 and CO2 were found to decrease non-monotonically with increasing plasma intensity after the input voltage crossed the critical value, with the result being a product of various plasma combustion enhancement mechanisms such as dissociation and excitation.…”
