摘要：

The fluid-dynamic characterization by means of Schlieren high-speed imaging of the effluent region of a single electrode plasma jet is presented. The plasma source is powered by a high-voltage generator producing pulses with nanosecond rise time. Time evolution of fluctuations generated in a free flow regime and when the jet is impinging on substrates of different geometries (plain substrates, Petri dishes, etc.) and materials (metal, dielectric covered metal, polystyrene) has been investigated. Plasma ignition causes fluid-dynamic instabilities moving in the direction of the jet flow and correlated with the high-voltage pulses: for low pulse repetition frequency (PRF) (< 125 Hz), the movement of the turbulent front between two voltage pulses can be tracked, whereas for higher PRF (1,000 Hz) the flow is completely characterized by turbulent eddies in the effluent region, without relevant changes between subsequent voltage pulses. When the jet is impinging on a substrate, turbulent fronts propagate over the surface starting from the gas impinging zone.
