Case summary for the ESD simulations.

Case. No	ESD pattern	Case purpose
Case-1&2	Ion generator	Numerical model validation
Case-3	Single discharge wire	The influences of key parameters (applied voltage, inlet velocity and disinfection coefficient) on disinfection efficiency of ESD
		The influences of physical mechanisms (EHD flow and electrophoretic force effect) on disinfection efficiency of ESD
Case-4	Multiple discharge wires	The influences of key parameters (applied voltage, inlet velocity and disinfection coefficient) on disinfection efficiency of ESD
