Abstract
We present experimental data with respect to the ablation of the walls of a cylindrical channel made of a dielectric material under the action of a pulsed electric discharge. We have found the relationship between the mass removed from the walls of the channel and the geometry of the channel and the physical constants of the dielectric materials.
