Abstract :Research on corona plasma discharges from plasma reactors has been carried out using the Point and Semicircular-Plane (PSC-P) electrode configuration in the air. The purpose of this study is to compare the suitability level of the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics curve from the results of experimental data and numerical simulation calculations of the electrode geometry function based on the variation of three electrode configuration sizes (small plate, medium plate, and large plate) and two variations of the distance between the two electrodes in each electrode configuration size. The results of the study prove that there is a high degree of conformity between numerical calculations with experimental data through calculations from the Python GUI Programming by taking a fitting value from the certain k-shape sharpness factor. The calculation location of the k-shape sharpness factor lies on the electrode tip sharp surface which will produce the largest plasma flow in the plasma reactor equipment.Keywords : Corona discharge, (I-V) characteristics curve, PSC-P, Python GUI Programming, k-shape sharpness factor
