| Abstract | Plasma-assisted combustion is a new technology that can improve combustion efficiency. It can also enable use of difficult-to-burn fuels such as ammonia. However, predicting the performance of plasma-assisted combustion requires models that take into account how plasma interacts with surfaces. This project will use a combination of modeling and experiments to identify the fundamental physics driving interactions of plasma with surfaces. The research outcomes will be critical tools that better si |
