| Popis | The natural tendency of fine powders to concentrate outside the microfilament plasma channel was utilized to induce their unidirectional drift across the active plasma zone. A coplanar barrier discharge with multiple (i.e. 3 and 4) individually driven electrodes was devised, together with two different types of high-voltage power supplies. Discharge plasma was sequentially ignited between the given electrode pair, forming a travelling wave of active plasma zone. The presence of bulk material transport was demonstrated on stained glass microbeads of 100-200 µm average diameter. Two important constrains were identified: (1) only a thin powder layer can be effectively manipulated; (2) driving frequency is inversely proportional to the mass of transported powders. The 3-electrode system exhibited the str ongest transport properties for the tested material. The 4-electrode system simplified the design of multiphase HV power supply, with still reasonably strong powder transport. |
