THREE DIMENSIONAL MODELLING OF HEAT TRANSFER IN A PLASMA REACTOR WITH THREE TORCHES. COMPARISON WITH EXPERIMENTS
Résumé
Numerical calculations of a plasma reactor with three DC transferred arcs are presented. The reactor geometry is cylindrical with the torches symmetrically positioned in a conical top section. The tilt is 45°. A two step approach is used where the modelling of the torch itself in two dimensions is combined with the three dimensional simulation of the arcs in the plasma reactor. Wall heat losses measured in a 1:1 scale model are compared with the theoretical predictions. The agreement is quite satisfactory.
