Atmospheric-pressure plasmas have been developed extensively for applications such as semiconductor manufacturing, combustion, and plasma medicine due to the generation of abundant reactive species being critical for manipulating reaction pathways in different fields. However, it is still challenging to develop a proper plasma source with controlled parameters by experimental measurements because of fast discharge dynamics and complex plasma chemistry. Alternatively, numerical simulations can be used to capture discharge dynamics with detailed chemistry revealed. In this project, a two-dimensional plasma fluid model will be integrated with a two-dimensional gas flow model to predict the dynamic behavior of an atmospheric pressure plasmas. The simulated results will be compared with experiments to validate the model. It is a topic involving physics, chemistry, and thermofluid science, which is suitable for students in mechanical engineering.
