WebbThe spots move in a random manner in elementary steps of a crater radius with time constants of the order of 10 −8 s. The main reason for the movement is the formation of micropoints at crater boundaries. Droplets and contaminations induce jumps of more than a … Webb25 maj 2024 · Abstract: A detailed numerical model of individual cathode spots in high-current vacuum arcs is developed. The model takes into account two kinds of plasmas in the vicinity of the spot: an “external” plasma (e.g., a plasma generated for arc triggering, a bulk background plasma, or a plasma cloud left over from a previous spot in the … dw melodrama\u0027s
