Technical Field

The plasma generating apparatus is required to have high stability, high power, high efficiency, and long life for large-scale application in industry.
The direct current arc plasma generating device has the advantages of simple structure, high stability, high power, high electrothermal conversion efficiency and the like, and relatively meets the requirements of industrial application. Most of the existing non-transferred arc plasma generators in the main form adopt a high-frequency starting mode, a trigger electrode is introduced, discharge is formed between a cathode and the trigger electrode, the discharge arc is sprayed to an anode to ignite arcs between the cathode and the anode, the common point is that the distance between the cathode and the anode is small, and larger power cannot be obtained through a simple two-electrode structure, so that two methods for improving the power of the plasma generators are adopted, namely, the discharge current is increased, the discharge voltage is improved, but the discharge current is too large, so that the thermal efficiency is reduced, the service life of the electrode is shortened, and therefore, the improvement of the discharge voltage, namely, the increase of the arc length is an effective way for improving the power. Under the condition that the current is kept unchanged, the working gas flow is increased to increase the arc length so as to improve the voltage, but the gas flow cannot be increased without limit, the plasma heating efficiency and the discharge stability are directly influenced by the excessive gas flow, when the gas flow reaches a certain value, the arc can be blown out, the power improvement is limited by a plurality of factors, and generally the power improvement does not exceed three hundred kilowatts.

The existing arc plasma generator generally adopts a water-cooled solid cathode, cathode arc spots are concentrated, the cathode ablation is serious, the service life is short, or a tubular cathode is adopted, although the ablation area is increased, the stability in the discharging process is poor. In addition, the water cooling systems of the cathode and the anode are not separated, so that the assembly, disassembly and leakage detection are difficult, the water cooling effect is greatly reduced, when the power is increased, the problems are more prominent, the service life is generally not longer than two hundred hours, and the industrial application of the high-power plasma generator is severely restricted.
