Abstract
A model is developed to describe the transfer of vibrational energy from excited gas molecules to a heterogeneous surface or to heating of the gas. Diffusion of excited species is included in the model. The model is used to compute the maximum possible energy efficiency of a plasma-induced catalytic reaction, which is driven by vibrationally excited molecules. The computational results of the model are correlated to experimental data on quenching rates and the relevant parameters of the self-sustained discharge.
It is con cluded that the mechanism of plasma-induced catalysis with vibrationally excited molecules is highly unlikely.
