A Study of the Characteristics of the Plasma Air Arc Used for Cutting Metals

Abstract

The plasma air arc used for cutting metals must ensure an important heat transfer efficiency to metal during the cutting. More important parameter that ensure a great efficiency of cutting metals is the integral pressure of the outgoing plasma arc. In this paper are given the results of the experimental study of die influence of parameters of plasma torch with the antivortex generator on the integral pressure.
