ENERGY DISTRIBUTION IN FLAMES AND ELECTRICAL DISCHARGES.

Abstract

It is shown that at low pressures the spectrum of the CH* and C2* emission is independent of flame parameters. Hence, the initial energy distribution is obtained. This energy distribution is then used to prove that the more than one reaction produces CH* in the ethylene flame. A theory is presented taking into account inelastic and reactive collision in the positive column of a DC glow discharge. The structure of the positive column near the anode is also analysed. A survey is presented of DC glow discharges through oxygen. (Author)
