Influence of plasma properties on ARC discharge destabilization

  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

The influence of heat transfer processes in arc discharges on the development of thermal instability is considered. A substantial dependence of the process of destabilization on the plasma properties is shown by the example of argon and helium arcs.
