Calculation of a flow of plasma in the vicinity of a profiled surface of an electric arc cathode
Annotation
Some features are treated which are characteristic of a flow of arc plasma in the vicinity of a profiled cathode surface. Comparison of theoretical and experimental results leads one to assume that the formation of a plasma circulation zone in the vicinity of a profiled cathode surface contributes to reducing the erosion of the cathode material.
