Resumo(s)
A robust, fast, and accurate numerical method is proposed for finding the voltage of the
ignition of DC self-sustaining gas discharges in a wide range of conditions. The method is
based on physical grounds and builds up from the idea that the ignition of a self-sustaining gas
discharge should be associated with a resonance that would occur in a non-self-sustained
discharge in the same electrode configuration. Examples of the application of the method are
shown for various configurations: parallel-plate discharge, coaxial and wire-to-plane corona
discharges, and a discharge along a dielectric surface. The results conform to the conventional
Townsend breakdown condition for the parallel-plate configuration and are in good agreement
with existing experimental data for the other configurations. The method has the potential of
providing a reference point for optimization of the hold-off capability of high-power
switchgear operating in low-frequency fields.
