Abstract:

In this paper, we use PLASIMO to investigate the effect of discharge current on hydrogen plasma in the cascaded arc, the effects of discharge current on plasma properties were investigated. temperature, conductivity, and the distribution of electron density along the symmetry axis of hydrogen plasma is analyzed in the simulation area. The simulation results show that plasma temperature is 0.9503×104, 1.09862×104, 1.26675×104, 1.65102×104 K in the symmetry axis when the discharge current is 35, 50, 75 and 100A, meanwhile, electric conductivity is 1738.03, 2272.72, 2819.86, 3820.73 s/m.
