This thesis proposes a dielectric barrier discharge ozone-driven system using unbalanced ac voltage-driven techniques. This study is devoted to improving the efficiency of plasma stimulating and increasing the concentration of ozone produced. The dual-terminal driving method is used to superimpose the sinusoidal voltage and the square wave voltage, by which the generated unbalanced ac voltage is used as a source to drive the plasma load. In this thesis, the high-frequency inverter is combined with the resonant circuit, step-up transformer and dielectric discharge carrier to complete the ozone-driven system. Then, the equivalent resonant circuit is derived along with the simulation of circuit characteristics in order to reach the design specifications. In addition, this study incorporates the phase-shifted modulation control method, resulting in a stable driving performance for the overall system. To validate the feasibility of the proposed system design, an ozone-driven system has been built and tested in this thesis. These experimental results show that the unbalanced ac voltage generated via this dual-terminal driving mechanism would generate a higher concentration of ozone. The research results are beneficial references for the research and development of ozone industries applications.
