Abstract

The anode boundary layer of an argon free burning arc is investigated using a two-temperature model, which includes convection and charge particle diffusion. The detailed structure of the boundary layer in terms of charge density, electron and ion temperature, and electrical potential distribution is given for two discharge currents, 100A and 200A. The energy flux received by the anode is also given.
