Abstract
A system for generating a plasma discharge in liquid utilizes first and second electrodes spaced apart in an interior space of a vessel holding the liquid. A channel can be defined in certain embodiments at least partially by at least one of the first and second electrodes, and an inlet in fluid communication with the interior space is configured to generate a vortical fluid flow in the vessel. A method for generating a plasma discharge in liquid is also provided.
Claims25
A system for generating a plasma discharge in liquid, the system comprising:
- a liquid inlet and a liquid outlet in fluid communication with an interior space of a liquid vessel, the inlet and outlet both disposed near a top side of the liquid vessel and configured to generate a vortex fluid flow in the interior space of the liquid vessel;
- and
- a high voltage electrode and a ground electrode spaced apart, the high voltage electrode i) disposed at a bottom side of the liquid vessel, ii) including a gas channel for gas injection into the liquid vessel, and iii) including an endcap and a plurality of lateral openings in a sidewall of the high voltage electrode proximal to the endcap.
