Abstract :
The treatment of diesel particle deposit, using a surface dielectric barrier discharge, is investigated. Main results show that, in the presence of diesel particle deposit, discharge current and averaged electric power decrease gradually with the treatment duration. During the treatment process, the microdischarges are intense locally. At the end of the treatment, the discharge behavior is similar to the one obtained with a clean dielectric surface.
