Mechanism of Phase Transition from Liquid to Gas Under Dielectric Barrier Discharge Plasma

【摘要】 <正> Liquid gasification phenomenon was observable in liquid-solid dielectric barrier discharge(DBD) experiments.

It was concluded from both theoretical analysis and experiment that the change in liquidpressure was a key factor causing liquid to gasify in DBD conditions.
