Abstract
The simulation of the temporal evolution of the various neutral gaseous species studied (O, O3, H, OH, HO2, H2O2) use corona effects. The physical conditions of the discharge were used. The reactions take place in dry or humid oxygen, after the dissociation of O2 and H2O by an electronic pulse. When water vapor is present, there is a probability of production of H2O2 in oxygen. Temperature and humidity have cumulative effects. With multiple pulses, the O3 maximal concentration is obtained for a limited number of pulses.
