Abstract

Extended arc discharges in open-air between graphite electrodes are examined. The main goal of the study is to obtain data on changes in the parameters of electric-arc plasma during the initiation and development of a discharge. High-speed video recording of the discharge gap is used, synchronized with current and voltage oscillography data. Pyrometric measurements of the electrode temperature and spectral measurements of the discharge-plasma characteristics in the arc column and near the electrodes are carried out.
