In order to obtain the characteristics of argon/air plasma assistant combustion actuators, experiments of three different actuators with normal, paratactic and meshy electrode configurations were respectively performed in argon/air mixture firstly, the results showed that the shape of electrode has little influence on the discharge characteristics. Then normal electrode was applied to study spectrum and discharge characteristics under the condition of 100% air and 10% argon/90% air. The comparison showed that, though in mixture the law of discharge characteristic was the same as that of pure air, discharge current and emission spectrum were strengthened, and initial discharge voltage reduced from 27 to 24 kV.
