Temperature measurements of large power arcs and the relation of temperature to dielectric recovery
A study of the basic mechanisms of dielectric recovery of power frequency arcs in air is reported. The particular arc studied is that of a standard 6 inch rod gap conducting 300 or 800 amperes crest for 1/2 cycle of a 60 cycle per second current. The temperature of the arc space and the variatio...
