Formation of stationary current filaments is studied in a planar layered structure of gas discharge coupled to a high-Ohmic semiconductor and driven by a stationary voltage (the gas discharge-semiconductor system, GDSS). The simulations are carried out in 2D. The model is based on the diffusion-drift theory of gas discharges. Multiple steady-state solutions in GDSS are found for the first time. The computed discharge parameters are found to be in reasonable agreement with the experiment. Results support the evidence that the thermal mechanism is responsible for the instability in GDSS, under considered conditions. This is also supported by the linear stability analysis of the homogeneous stationary state: with heating of the gas excluded, the instability does not form a spatial structure, it is homogeneous and purely growing without oscillations. Including the gas heating into the model changes the dispersion relation drastically. Published by AIP Publishing.

Studies on the effect of electrode type and substrate temperature on plasma polymerization of two model compounds: Acrylonitrile and hexamethyldisiloxane Akovalı, Güneri; Dilsiz, Nursel (Wiley, 1990-4) Polymers were prepared from saturated (HMDS) and unsaturated (AN) monomers in a radio frequency discharge (plasma). The effect of selected parameters such as electrode type (such as Cu, Zn, Ni, Al), reactor type, and substrate temperature (other parameters constant) on chemical structure and the rate of polymer deposition was examined by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Differences in the nature of electrodes and reactor types were found to yield similar plasma products with similar rates of ...
Effects of pressure and electric field on the charge transport mechanisms in the silver-modified-zeolite porous microstructure Koc, Sevgul Ozturk; Koseoglu, Kivilcim; Galioglu, Sezin; Akata Kurç, Burcu; SALAMOV, BAHTİYAR (2016-03-15) The electrical properties and charge transport mechanisms for nanoporous natural zeolite of clinoptilolite and its silver modified form were studied for the first time in a wide gas pressure range (4-760 Torr) and electric field strength (50-350 kV/cm) at room temperature using two different cell configurations. One of the used cells contained a gas discharge gap, which allowed investigating the electronic conduction route in zeolite cathodes (ZC) as well. The influence of pressure, electric field and cell ...
A CSCM approximation of steady MHD flow and heat transfer between parallel plates with hydrodynamic slip and convective boundary conditions Tezer, Münevver; Türk, Önder (null; 2019-10-04) The steady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow together with its heat transfer between parallel plates is considered in which the electrically conducting fluid has temperature dependent properties such as viscosity, thermal and electrical conductivity. The fluid is driven by a constant pressure gradient, and a uniform external transverse magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the plates. The effects of viscous and Joule dissipations are considered in the energy equation, and the fluid is assumed to be slippi...
A DRBEM solution for MHD pipe flow in a conducting medium Han Aydın, S.; Tezer, Münevver (Elsevier BV, 2014-3) Numerical solutions are given for magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) pipe flow under the influence of a transverse magnetic field when the outside medium is also electrically conducting. Convection-diffusion-type MHD equations for inside the pipe are coupled with the Laplace equation defined in the exterior region, and the continuity requirements for the induced magnetic fields are also coupled on the pipe wall. The most general problem of a conducting pipe wall with thickness, which also has magnetic induction gene...
Three-dimensional modeling of a high temperature polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell at different operation temperatures Caglayan, Dilara Gulcin; Sezgin, Berna; DEVRİM, YILSER; Eroğlu, İnci (2016-06-22) A three-dimensional model for a high temperature polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell having an active area of 25 cm(2) is developed. Triple mixed serpentine flow channel single cell with phosphoric acid doped polybenzimidazole (FBI) membrane is used in the model. Steady-state, isothermal, single phase assumptions are defined for the system. The model is simulated at different temperatures ranging from 100 to 180 degrees C to investigate the influence of operation temperature on the performance of t...
