What is arc discharge？
Source: | Author:hkwa49fa3 | Published time: 2019-07-01 | 1373 Views | Share:
When the voltage between the two electrodes rises, the positive and negative ions in the air near the electrode are accelerated by the electric field, and collide with other air molecules to generate new ions during the movement, and the phenomenon that such ions are greatly increased is called "ionization". While the air is being ionized, the temperature rises sharply to produce an arc, which is called arc discharge. Arc discharge generally does not require a very high voltage and is a low voltage and high current discharge.
The arc discharge conditions are small gaps and large currents, and if the gap is increased or the current is reduced, the arc will disappear.
