Calculation of electron temperature of arc plasma in a strong transverse magnetic field
Description
The electron temperature (Te) is an important component of arc plasma parameters suggeting necessary information for studying plasma characteristics. The existing methods for measuring Te involve several complications owing to the dependence of Te on various factors. A method has been suggested here to calculate Te from simple measurement of arc plasma current and the corresponding arc voltage, when the plasma is subjected to a varying transverse magnetic field at a point where the power consumption is maximum.
