Abstract :
The characteristics of a multiple argon bubble jet in which a streamer is generated by a dc pulsed discharge have been experimentally clarified through discharge visualization in a bubble and decolorization of a methylene blue solution. There are two types of streamer behavior in a bubble jet in which discharge propagation is along the top and bottom interfaces of the bubble and along the sidewall of the bubble. The methylene blue solution is successfully decolorized by a discharged bubble jet in 20 min.
