| Abstract Scope |
Based on a three-dimensional Plasma magnetohydrodynamic model, the arc dynamics under different applied axial magnetic fields(AMFs) magnitude is analyzed. In the model both the plasma dynamics and the collective motion of cathode spots are simulated. The influences of the azimuthal self-magnetic field and different poloidal distributed AMFs on the vacuum arc characteristics are studied. The comparison with VAR experimental results shows good agreements. Periodic asymmetric and rotating behaviors of the arc are predicted. When a magnetic field is applied, the spots gather and rotates coherently. |
