Abstract
The resource of plasma torches and plasma devices on their basis depends strongly on the rate of destruction (erosion) of the electrodes. Experimental data on the erosion of copper electrodes in DC arc plasma torches are presented. In dependence on the design of plasma devices and their technological applications, the electrodes (cathode and anode) are in different thermal conditions and their resource characteristics differ significantly. The key parameters for optimization of the erosion characteristics during operation of plasma torches with an electrode resource of many hundreds of hours have been established.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
