This study investigates the impact of binary gas mixtures in multi‐arc plasma generator using numerical simulations. The addition of hydrogen and nitrogen increases voltage and power, which is consistent with experimental data. The maximum temperature of the cathodes occurred at the edge rather than the tip, and the use of hydrogen in the gas mixture ...

Enhancement of mechanical properties of alloy steel by GTAW with different purge/shielding gases [PDF]
Welding of ferritic steel tube material T91 (9Cr-1Mo), was used because of high temperature withstanding, mechanical properties, compatibility with chemicals and adequate weldability. The main objective of this project is to find out near optimum welding

Plasma‐flash sintering: Metastable phase stabilization and evidence of ionized species
Abstract The first demonstration of plasma‐flash sintering (PFS) is presented in this work. PFS is performed under a low‐pressure atmosphere that consecutively generates plasma and flash events. It is shown, by using several combined characterization techniques, that PFS stabilizes metastable phases on the surface of the material, which may be ...

Characterization of the Plasma Shape of the TIG Welding Arc [PDF]
Tungsten electrodes were prepared to analyse the plasma geometry at TIG welding. The investigated electrodes were La02, Th02 alloyed. Tip flatted electrodes were grinded as well. The shape of plasma were analysed for 36 different electrodes.
