Experimental Analysis of Breakdown With Nanosecond Pulses for Spark-Ignition Engines

The influence of pulse rise rate and pulse duration for ignition purposes in engines is investigated. A constant volume cell is used to characterize the breakdown voltage under nanosecond pulsed voltages with automotive sparkplugs having electrode gaps ranging from 0.2 mm to 1 mm. Two pulse generato...
