Sentence examples for arc gap from inspiring English sources

The reaction zone where carbon radicals nucleate (close to the arc gap) was probed by optical absorption spectroscopy.

Input parameters selected for experiments were current, welding speed and arc gap and design of experiments was carried out using central composite design of response surface methodology.

Skill of the welder largely depends on ability of the welder in maintaining constant arc gap which, in turn results in steady state arc voltage.

During the Cenozoic, the interaction of spreading ridges and subduction at the trench controlls the main deformation episodes, the volcanic arc gaps and the eruption of foreland plateau basalts.

To solve this problem, a new kind of jet stream arc extinguishing gap lightning protection device (JSIGLPD) installed on the overhead transmission lines was developed.

Spark gaps used in lightning arresters are unreliable, either failing to strike an arc when needed or failing to turn off afterwards, in the latter case due to material failure or contamination by dust or salt.

The problem with simple spark gaps is this: once the air between the gap has been ionized with the arc, the resistance of the gap is reduced partially due to the increase in air temperature, allowing the frequency of the system to fluctuate.

When a circuit breaker opens to interrupt the short circuit, current can arc across the gap, probably destroying the circuit breaker, and often escalating the problem.

According to Paschen's law, the voltage necessary to arc across the gap between electrodes decreases as the pressure increases and then increases gradually with the pressure.
