First, the equilibrium composition of the air at gas temperatures of 300–3500K was calculated through Saha and Guldburg-Waage equations. Secondly, the electron energy distribution function (EEDF) was calculated by an adoption of the two-term expansion of Boltzmann equation. Finally, the effective ionization coefficient ᾱ was derived from the EEDF obtained. The critical reduced electric field strength (E/N)cr, which gives zero effective ionization coefficient ᾱ = 0, was obtained at gas temperatures of 300–3500K. The result indicates that (E/N)cr decreases as the gas temperature increases from 1500K to 3500K, which is due mainly to an increase in the mole fraction of NO molecule which has a much lower ionization potential compared with N2 and O2. This calculated result fairly agrees with an experimental one. © 2003, The Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.
