Theory of electrode arcs in a flow of combustion products containing an additive

Description

The problem of calculating the characteristics of MHD generators is discussed. A mathematical model is constructed under a number of assumptions for an arc near an electrode in a flow of combustion products containing an additive. The model consists of a system of equations containing an integral equation for conservation of energy. The system was solved numerically
