一种提高电弧等离子体发生器运行稳定性和寿命的方法和 装置A method and method for improving the operation stability and life of an arc plasma generator device

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及一种提高电弧等离子体发生器运行稳定性和寿命的方法和装置。The invention relates to a method and a device for improving the operation stability and service life of an arc plasma generator.

背景技术Background technique

直流非转移式电弧等离子体发生器在工业制造、科学探索、环境保护、医疗卫生、国防安全等广阔的领域已有数十年的应用和研究历史。发生器的形式更是多种多样,从常用的最简单的仅有柱状阴极和管状阳极的结构、管弧、叠片式,到种类繁多的特殊结构。无论何种结构和用途以及功率等级的非转移式电弧,共同的特点是以气体放电电弧为电流通道连接阴极和阳极。在流动的氩、氮、氢、空气等气体或混合气中,在阴极和阳极之间产生放电电弧和加热工作气体,形成数千以至上万度的热等离子体射流。DC non-transferred arc plasma generators have decades of application and research history in a wide range of fields such as industrial manufacturing, scientific exploration, environmental protection, medical care, and national defense. There are various forms of generators, from the most commonly used structure with only cylindrical cathode and tubular anode, tube arc, laminated type, to a wide variety of special structures. Regardless of the structure, use and power level of the non-transferred arc, the common feature is that the gas discharge arc is used as the current channel to connect the cathode and the anode. In the flowing argon, nitrogen, hydrogen, air and other gases or mixed gases, a discharge arc is generated between the cathode and the anode and the working gas is heated to form a hot plasma jet of thousands or even tens of thousands of degrees.

电弧在电极表面贴附区的电流密度可能超过108A/m2,电极烧蚀引起的发生器寿命问题,一直是影响这类发生器高效使用、降低维护成本和技术要求、推向更广的长时间连续运行应用的瓶颈因素。同时,电极烧蚀产物的污染也限制了这类等离子体在精细组分材料的合成、风洞实验中材料热特性准确评估等领域的应用。因此,数十年来,各种减少电极烧蚀以提高等离子体发生器寿命的尝试从未间断。The current density of the arc in the electrode surface attachment area may exceed 10 8 A/m 2 , and the life of the generator caused by electrode ablation has always affected the efficient use of this type of generator, reducing maintenance costs and technical requirements, and promoting it to a wider range. The bottleneck factor of long-term continuous running applications. At the same time, the contamination of electrode ablation products also limits the application of this type of plasma in the synthesis of fine component materials and the accurate evaluation of material thermal properties in wind tunnel experiments. Therefore, various attempts to reduce electrode ablation to improve plasma generator lifetime have been carried out for decades.

工业应用上高效连续运转的大功率电弧等离子体发生器更需要高寿命低烧蚀的发生器。目前,在发生器在阴极和阳极之间夹入较长的中间段,拉大阴极与阳极之间的距离以提高电弧电压,使得在相同的电弧功率条件下降低电弧电流,以减少电极烧蚀。或同时采用多对电极组来分散电弧在电极表面的贴附,以降低贴附弧根的局域电流密度,减缓电极的局域恶性烧蚀。只是这种结构的热等离子体发生器结构复杂,维护耗费大,电源需要高电压设计。High-efficiency and continuous operation of high-power arc plasma generators in industrial applications requires generators with long life and low ablation. At present, a longer intermediate section is inserted between the cathode and the anode in the generator, and the distance between the cathode and the anode is increased to increase the arc voltage, so that the arc current can be reduced under the same arc power condition to reduce electrode ablation . Or use multiple pairs of electrode groups at the same time to disperse the attachment of the arc on the electrode surface, so as to reduce the local current density of the attached arc root and slow down the local malignant ablation of the electrode. It’s just that the structure of the thermal plasma generator with this structure is complicated, the maintenance cost is large, and the power supply needs a high-voltage design.

外电压激发等离子体阴极1和阳极3间产生电弧;电弧从阴极1出发经过中间段2和绝缘件4向阳极3方向移动,最终电弧弧根7贴附阳极3。阳极3经过表面镀膜处理,在电极表面制备高反应活性材料分散嵌入的复合材料涂层31,促成电弧弧根的扩散型贴附,从而降低电弧等离子体发生器的电极烧蚀,提高运行稳定性。The external voltage excites the plasma to generate an arc between the cathode 1 and the anode 3; the arc starts from the cathode 1 and moves towards the anode 3 through the middle section 2 and the insulating member 4, and finally the arc root 7 is attached to the anode 3.
