Abstract

Based on a 3-D steady magnetohydrodynamic model, the high current vacuum arc subjected to a realistic spatial magnetic field generated by the cup-type contacts was simulated. The influence of the realistic spatial magnetic field profile on plasma's rotation behavior was analyzed. The distribution of the azimuthal velocity on anode side under realistic spatial magnetic field profile was quite different from that under uniform axial magnetic field. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
