Abstract: A corona discharge is closely related to the electrogasdynamic flows (electric wind) accompanying it. These phenomena have been considered in numerous studies and described in several monographs. Usually, they are investigated separately, because it is assumed that electric wind develops exclusively in the external region of the corona discharge. However, because a distinct boundary between the ionization layer and the external region is absent, the relation between these processes is being investigated in a number of current studies treating these phenomena in conjunction with each other. The results presented in this paper were mainly obtained in such studies.

Keywords: corona discharge, electrogasdynamics, electric wind.
