  • Abstract
    Investigations devoted to the analysis of effective ionization processes at early discharge stages in propane-air mixture, at propane concentration of <10% at atmospheric pressure, are the first necessary step before the analysis of air-propane discharge in real conditions. Necessary parameters of excitation and ionization in these mixtures have been determined in a wide range of electric field. Thresholds of ionization in these mixtures have been calculated.
