Effect of electrode material on a sign of total near-electrode drop of voltage

D.M. Kaleko

E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute of the NASU 11 Kazymyr Malevych Str., 03150, Kyiv, Ukraine.

Abstract
It is shown that the sign and value of difference of potentials between бlosing electrodes (sum of near-electrode drops of voltage) depend mainly on thermophysical properties of the cathode material.
Keywords: electric arc, total near-electrode drop of votage, cathode material
