摘要: The arc movement was examined for tubular copper electrodes using different plasma gases (argon, helium, nitrogen, air, chloride and mixtures of these gases). normal current 100 A; the moved an external magnetic field which varied between 10 1500 G. velocity followed aerodynamic type equation when cathode surface contaminated. For clean or heavily contaminated surfaces another opposing force becomes important, drag force. also investigated by high speed filming following fluctuations. Auger, ESCA SEM; work function values were obtained a Kelvin probe. results consistent with model presented movement.
