description | We claim an analytical solution for the thermal boundary value problem that arises in DBD-based plasma jet systems as a preliminary and consistent approach to a simplified geometry. This approach involves the outline of a coaxial plasma jet reactor and the consideration of the heat transfer to the reactor solids, namely, the dielectric barrier and the grounded electrode. The non-homogeneous initial and boundary value thermal problem is solved analytically, while a simple cut-off technique is applied to deal with the appearance of infinite series relationships, being the outcome of merging dual expressions. The results are also implemented numerically, supporting the analytical solution, while a Finite Integration Technique (FIT) is used for the validation. Both the analytical and numerical data reveal the temperature pattern at the cross-section of the solids in perfect agreement. This analytical approach could be of importance for the optimization of plasma jet systems employed in tailored applications where temperature-sensitive materials are involved, like in plasma biomedicine. |
