ABSTRACT:
A gas shrouded plasma torch utilizes a hot anode that has an inert gas passing around the periphery of the anode to provide an inert gas shroud for a plasma stream exiting from the anode. The gas shroud is heated as it passes around the exterior of the hot anode, and when it exits from the passageway and forms a shroud, it mixes with and shields the hot plasma. The arrangement gives the results of less turbulence of the plasma flow, while retaining a high temperature which aids in particle processing.
