| Abstract: | The characteristics of a nitrogen arc using a graphite cathode and a melting anode in a pilot-scale plasma furnace are investigated.The voltage is examined as a function of current and apparent plasma length.The voltage increases non-linearly with the increase of apparent plasma length,with the current fixed.The experimental data so obtained are compared with the predictions of the Bowman model for the electric arc,and with numerical simulations as well.The level of agreement between the experimental data at the melting anode and the numerical predictions confirms the suitability of the proposed the Bowman model.These characteristics are relevant to the engineering design and evaluation of a DC plasma furnace and reactor for the treatment of hazardous fly ash waste. |
