Abstract
Some results of measurements of the total and radiative heat fluxes to the accelerating electrodes during a single capacitor discharge are presented for one model of an erosion-type coaxial plasma accelerator. On the basis of experimental data on the total heat transfer, the temperature at the surface of the accelerating electrodes is estimated.
