1. Thermal plasma production techniques
There are two main techniques for producing thermal plasmas at or near atmospheric pressure: RF radio-frequency torches and direct current (DC) arcs, either blown or transferred. The key parameters of plasma production devices are as follows.
-
Torch thermal efficiency
It quantifies the power dissipated in the gas:
