Abstract:

The application of an information polarized electromagnetic field in resource-saving, low-energy electromagnetic crop production technologies with the introduction of automated systems of gas-discharge visualization of bio-objects into the technological cycle of pre-sowing seed treatment is shown. The process of forming a gas-discharge image of a bio-object located in the recess of a flat electrode and on a rectangular protrusion of one flat electrode is considered. Based on the application of the complex potential method, which is based on conformal maps of a simple region on one complex plane to a real Region obtained on the second complex plane, expressions were obtained on the basis of which calculations of the distribution of electric field strength for various variants were performed. The distribution of the electric field strength is determined between the plates of the gas-discharge cell, when a< b, a< l, V = 15 kV, а = 6 mm, connecting the voltage source in the center above the protrusion, that is, without displacement; between the plates of the gas-discharge cell, when a a< b, a< l, V = 20 kV, а = 6 mm, the offset from the center of the recess of the voltage source connection point is 10 mm. and above the protrusion of the cell electrode, when a = b = 6 mm; V = 20 kV when connecting a high-voltage voltage source in the center above the protrusion, i.e. without displacement; above the protrusion on the cell electrode when a = b = 6 mm, V = 15 kV when connecting a high-voltage voltage source in the center above the protrusion, that is, without displacement; above the protrusion on the cell electrode when a = b = 6 mm, V = 20 kV when connecting a voltage source with a shift from the center by 10 mm. Based on the graphical dependences of the electric field strength, it is justified to obtain a high-quality gas-discharge visualization of a biological object. It is shown that the studied biological object, for example, a small seed, should be placed on the surface of the protrusion of the cell electrode with a distance between the protrusion and the second electrode of the cell of a gas-discharge visualization device of 1 mm, and a high-voltage voltage source of 15...20 kV should be connected in the center of the protrusion without displacement in order to ensure the non-invasiveness of gas-discharge visualization, an assessment of the energy of thermal processes and their impact on the bio-object was carried out.
