Positive breakdown streamers have been investigated in a short (5 mm) point-plane gap in cyclohexane and n-tridecane with and without the additives N,N-dimethylamine (DMA) with low ionization potential and azobenzene with a not quite as low ionization potential but a very low lowest excitation level. The effects off additives are fairly similar to what is known from longer gaps with DMA or pyrene added: the additives caused reduced breakdown voltage, significantly increased acceleration voltage and increased streamer velocity around breakdown. Molecule for molecule, azobenzene has less effect than DMA. The ratio between the acceleration and the breakdown voltage is significantly higher than in long gaps, though. Nonetheless, tests in short gaps are sufficiently good for screening (a large number of) liquid combinations.
The two base liquids without additives, and also neat trichloroethene and DMA have been tested with and without a tube causing spatial restriction of the streamer. Restriction causes increased breakdown voltage and promotes the fastest streamer modes.
