The Effect of Turbulent Diffusion at The Mixing of SF₆ and N₂

Abstract

Mixing time of N₂ and SF₆ was measured. The local mixing ratio was determined by variation of the corona onset voltage on the needle-plane electrodes. Owing to the mass difference of two kinds of gases the mixing time was influenced by mixing methods. The mass difference makes flow of the gases in the mixing container and accelerates the diffusion. Then the wide range of diffusion (or turbulent diffusion) coefficients was obtained.
