  • Abstract
    The fraction k_p of electric arc energy leading to pressure rise in its surroundings is determined in dependence on arc current and electrode material for an arc occurring in a closed container. It is shown that the kp values for closed containers depend apart from the electrode material on the level of arc current, which, in turn, affects the energy balance.
