Research of Electromagnetic Effects on the Compound Arc Beam in the Hybrid Plasma-laser Manufacturing Process

摘要

In this paper, the mechanism of electromagnetic influence on the compound arc column is analyzed theoreticly, and the influence rule of electromagnetic on the compound arc beam is studied experimentally. The experimental results show that the compound arc column can absorb electromagnetic waves, and electromagnetic waves can compress the compound arc column. The compound arc column can maintain the same patterns only when the magnetic compressure and the expansive power outward are balance.
