Meta-aramid (PMIA) is a unique fiber that possesses exceptional insulation strength and thermodynamic stability. It is widely regarded as an ideal material for the development of the next generation of insulation paper. However, its intrinsic thermal conductivity of 0.21 W/(m·K) is relatively low and may not meet the long-term service requirements in high-temperature environments. To enhance the thermal conductivity and insulation of the PMIA paper, AlN and BN fillers are selected for composite doping modification of PMIA paper. The surfaces of the two fillers are coated with polydopamine (PDA) and modified with a KH550 silane coupling agent to improve the dispersibility of the two fillers. By adjusting the doping ratio, AlN-BN/PMIA composite insulation paper with different concentrations was prepared. The microstructure was characterized and the breakdown strength, conductivity, and thermal conductivity were tested. The effect of two different filler ratios on the insulation and thermal conductivity of the material was studied.

Firstly, the surfaces of the two fillers are coated with polydopamine (PDA) and modified with a KH550 silane coupling agent to enhance their dispersibility. By adjusting the doping ratio, AlN-BN/PMIA composite insulation paper with different concentrations is prepared. Secondly, the microstructure of samples is characterized and the breakdown voltage, conductivity, and thermal conductivity are tested. The influence of the ratio of two fillers on the insulation and thermal conductivity of the material was studied. Thirdly, based on density functional theory, band structure calculation and analysis are conducted, and a design concept of a “stepped charge trap” is proposed. In addition, the composite breakdown model is constructed using the phase field method, explaining the inherent mechanism of performance improvement.

According to the test results, adding BN to the AlN filler can further improve the matrix structure and fix the damage caused by the high concentration aggregation of AlN. The surface of the composite material appears relatively dense when the AlN/BN ratio is 3:7, with only a small amount of PMIA fibers and fillers precipitated. At a mass fraction of 40%, the breakdown strength of the composite gradually increases as the BN doping ratio increases. At a ratio of AlN/BN of 3:7, the composite paper exhibits its maximum breakdown strength of 186 kV/mm, which is 66.07% higher than that of the pure PMIA sample. Additionally, the conductivity of the composite is at its lowest value during this ratio. On the other hand, at an AlN/BN ratio of 7:3, the thermal conductivity of the composite is optimal, increasing by 213.6% compared to pure PMIA samples. The high aspect ratio structure of BN links it with AlN fillers to form an “thermal conductivity network”, which increases the thermal conductivity.

Energy band structure analysis based on density functional theory suggests that the wide bandgap properties of AlN and BN result in the formation of “stepped traps” at the PMIA interface. This leads to an increased energy barrier for charge transitions and limits the migration of charge carriers. In addition, a phase field simulation model indicates that the introduction of BN can further homogenize the electric field distribution, reduce the degree of local polarization, and thus enhance the insulation performance of the composite system.

Metallic foreign objects in various types of power equipment may cause discharge problems. To achieve accurate multi-spectral monitoring of the discharge phenomenon caused by metallic foreign object, it is necessary to deeply understand its influence on the mechanism of optical radiation during discharge. Currently, research on the impact of metallic foreign objects on high-voltage discharge is mostly focused on the macro level, without delving into the micro-particle level to analyze its effect on the discharge mechanism, and the influence of metallic foreign object on optical radiation during discharge has not been thoroughly explored. To address these issues, this paper analyzes the characteristics of metallic foreign object's impact on the full-band optical radiation of discharge and its influence mechanism on the day-blind ultraviolet band through experiments and simulations.
A high-voltage discharge experimental platform was first constructed. Discharge images were captured using ultraviolet and high-speed cameras, and the emission spectra were measured with a spectrometer to investigate the influence of metallic foreign object on full-band optical radiation during discharge. The effect of metallic foreign objects on the generation of day-blind ultraviolet radiation was further studied. It was verified that the particle transitions responsible for producing day-blind ultraviolet radiation are mainly $\mathrm{N}_{2}\left(\mathrm{~A}^{3} \Sigma_{\mathrm{u}}^{+} \rightarrow \mathrm{X}^{1} \Sigma_{\mathrm{g}}^{+}\right)$ and NO-γ(A²Σ⁺(v′)→X²Π(v″)). Based on this, a two-dimensional plasma simulation model was constructed to investigate the effect of different quantities of large metallic particles and varying masses of metal shavings on the discharge process. The model was used to calculate the number densities of NO(A²Σ⁺) and $\mathrm{N}_{2}\left(\mathrm{~A}^{3} \Sigma_{\mathrm{u}}^{+}\right)$ particles under different conditions, and the simulation results were validated by comparing them with the measured spectra. The experimental and simulation results were then comprehensively analyzed to explore the influence of metallic foreign object on day-blind ultraviolet radiation during discharge.
High-speed camera reveals that metallic foreign object increases the chance of arc formation between the tip of the needle electrode and the metallic foreign object. From the spectrum of the 200-1000 nm band measured in the experiment, it is evident that the increase in metallic foreign object enhances the optical radiation across the entire spectrum generated by the discharge. However, this enhancement is selective to certain bands, with the ultraviolet and visible light bands responding more sensitively. Therefore, ultraviolet and visible light detection is more effective for monitoring discharges caused by metallic foreign objects.
Analysis of UV images, 240~280 nm spectra, and simulations shows that an increase in the metal foreign object causes an increase in the amplitude of the spectral curve of the sun-blind UV band, an increase in the number densities of NO(A²Σ⁺) and $\mathrm{N}_{2}\left(\mathrm{~A}^{3} \Sigma_{\mathrm{u}}^{+}\right)$ particles, and an increase in the rate of the chemical reactions in the discharge region; however, the spectral shape remains basically unchanged, which means that it does not affect the types of chemical reactions and the relative ratios among them. By combining the electric field simulation results, the reason can be analyzed as follows: the metal foreign object increases the strength and inhomogeneity of the electric field, promoting the excitation and ionization of particles. This leads to the production of more NO(A²Σ⁺) and $\mathrm{N}_{2}\left(\mathrm{~A}^{3} \Sigma_{\mathrm{u}}^{+}\right)$ particles, thus promoting the enhancement of the sun-blind ultraviolet radiation.
The results of this paper apply to discharge phenomena in air influenced by metallic foreign objects, and the influence of metal particles on discharge in SF₆ and its alternative gases will be further investigated in the future.

As electric vehicles (EV) grow more popular and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology advances, large-scale EV aggregations (EVA) have become integral to the power system. However, effectively capturing the distinct idle energy storage characteristics of EVAs across regions and integrating them seamlessly into power system operations remains a challenge. The shortcomings of existing research can be summarized as the follows: Firstly, current methods for assessing the dispatchable regions (DR) of EVs remain inadequate, lacking systematic frameworks and classification methods. Secondly, current multi-level coordinated control strategy often overlooks the holistic nature of coordinated control, which spans multiple levels, including the power grid, garage, and users. Merely considering factors related to EVs and their users is insufficient, as it fails to provide a comprehensive guidance for all coordinated control participants, such as the power grid and garage.
This paper addresses the aforementioned issues by conducting the following works. Firstly, methods for establishing multi-stage electric vehicle dispatchable region (MEVDR) for both EV and EVA are proposed and further investigated. Secondly, the probability density functions of various EV data in different regions and time periods of clustering centers are captured using Gaussian mixture model (GMM). Thirdly, the MEVDR of EVAs in different regions and time periods are established and comprehensively analyzed. Furthermore, the proposed MEVDR model can be used to construct multi-period constraints. Based on this, a vehicles-garage-grid multi-level coordinated control system (VGGMCCS) based on MEVDR can be constructed, which consists of two levels and can therefore be considered a bi-level model. After a thorough analysis, VGGMCCS incorporates two mixed integer programming (MIP) problems, allowing the use of commercial solvers for rapid and efficient problem solving. Finally, in order to provide further validation of the effectiveness of the VGGMCC system based on MEVDR, a comparison was made between the proposed method and the contrasting strategies.
The case study shows that, when compared to two contrasting strategies, the proposed VGGMCCS has been demonstrated to reduce the grid network loss by 12.17% compared to comparative strategy 1 and by 8.69% compared to comparative strategy 2 during peak electricity demand periods. And to reduce users′ average daily charging costs by 7.88% compared to comparative strategy 1, and to increase operators′ revenues by 17.63% compared to comparative strategy 2. Meanwhile, the load fluctuation amplitude of the transformer at the garage node has been significantly reduced. During peak electricity consumption periods, the power fluctuation of transformers under VGGMCCS decreased by 96.36% compared to comparative strategy 1 and by 82.59% compared to comparative strategy 2. Last but not least, VGGMCCS also has a high solution speed, ensuring decision accuracy while quickly responding to dispatching requests from lower-level garages, effectively reducing both the time and economic losses caused by rescheduling requests after EVs are integrated into the power grid. The results show that VGGMCCS can effectively reduce users′ costs, improve the economic benefits of the garage and enhance the operational efficiency of the power grid, while ensuring the long-term stable operation of the power system, thus achieving a win-win situation for users, garage operators and power grid companies.
In summary, this paper provides a thorough establishment and analysis of EVA′s MEVDR across a diverse range of geographical and temporal contexts. Furthermore, when compared to the contrasting strategies, the proposed VGGMCCS promises to enhance both the economic benefits and operational efficiency of the power system significantly.

The oil-filled terminal adopts a solid-liquid composite insulation composite structure composed of silicone rubber (SiR) stress cone and silicone oil (SO) inside. Compared to the cable body, when the composite insulation interface is invaded by moisture or contains air gaps or impurities, it can cause electric field distortion. This distortion can trigger creepage and even flashover along the surface of the stress cone, significantly impacting the service life of the oil-filled terminal. Among them, moisture intrusion is recognized as the main factor causing insulation deterioration in cable terminals, and cable termination failure rate caused by it account for about 50%. Therefore, the moisture migration process and equilibrium characteristics between SO and SiR solid-liquid medium in the oil-filling terminal need to be further studied. In this paper, the moisture migration law between SO-SiR composite insulation system in oil-filled terminals is systematically studied, the swelling model and mechanism of SO in the terminals are discussed, and the moisture equilibrium characteristics of SO-SiR composite insulation systems under the effect of temperature and swelling are clarified.
Firstly, this study conducted moisture absorption experiments on SO and SiR under various temperature and humidity conditions. The water content of SO and SiR at different temperature and humidity equilibrium states was measured. Using the indirect equilibrium theory, a moisture equilibrium curve for the SO-SiR composite insulation was plotted. The results show that the water content of SO has a linear relationship with the relative humidity at the same temperature, and the saturated water content of SO changes exponentially with temperature. The water content of SiR has a nonlinear relationship with relative humidity, and the saturated water content of SiR does not change with temperature. As the temperature rises, moisture migrates from the SiR to the SO.
In addition to the moisture migration between the SO and the SiR duplex medium in the oil-filled terminal, the SO will also diffuse into the SiR. This diffusion destroys the physical and chemical cross-linking results of the SiR, and affects the moisture absorption characteristics of the SiR. Therefore, it is necessary to clarify the physical mechanism underlying the swelling of SiR by SO. The results show that the SO swells into the SiR in the form of free state and bound state according to the Langmuir diffusion process. With increasing time, the swelling rate increases as a logarithmic function. With increasing temperature, the equilibrium swelling mass remained unchanged, but the swelling rate increased. Under the SO (solvent)-SiR (solute) system, the elastic free energy of the system increased due to the swelling of SO, which was offset by the Gibbs free energy. Finally, the total free energy is zero, and the swelling reaches equilibrium.
On this basis, the moisture equilibrium curve of SO-SiR composite insulation was further optimized. After the swelling of SO, the free volume of SiR increases, which can dissolve more water. However, SiR with different degrees of swelling still exhibits the same water absorption characteristics as unswollen SiR. Combined with the moisture dissolution characteristics of SO, the moisture equilibrium surface diagram of SO-SiR composite insulation under temperature and swelling was drawn. With increased swelling, water molecules migrate from the SO to the SiR. Through this surface diagram, the water content of SO and SiR under different equilibrium states can be obtained, and the operation and maintenance of oil-filled terminals can be guided.

With a high proportion of power electronic devices connected to the power system, the new power system presents low inertia, low impedance, weak stability and other characteristics, and the risk of operational security increases. In this regard, the grid-forming energy storage converter should be emerged, the grid-forming energy storage converter gives inner loop voltage control the amplitude and phase angle through the power external loop control, presenting the voltage source characteristics. It has active anti-interference, active support characteristics, can effectively solve the problems faced by the new power systems. However, when the system is disturbed and the voltage falls to different degrees, the grid-forming energy storage is limited by the power angle curve of the power outer loop and the fixed active and reactive reference values, which will result in a large power angle instability and a disturbance current of more than 5 times. It threats the security and stability of the system operation. To address this problem, this paper firstly establishes a model of grid-forming energy storage converter. Based on the established model, the droop control power angle curve is plotted, and the transient destabilization mechanism of the grid-forming energy storage converter is analyzed under large disturbances. After analyzing the system, it is known that the stability of the system during large disturbances depends on the existence of an intersection between the system power angle curve and the active power reference value. At the same time, the size of the system disturbance current is affected by the degree of power angle change to a certain extent. Secondly, the disturbance current characteristics and its determining factors are analyzed, and the effect of direct current limiting control on the transient stability of the system is revealed. The analysis results show that the direct current limiting control tends to destabilize the system and cannot be directly used to limit the disturbance current. After theoretical analysis in this paper, it is found that the disturbance current size of the system is positively correlated with the difference between the converter out put voltage and the grid-side voltage, and the converter out put voltage size is correlated with the reference value of the power outer loop reactive power of the structural network type control. Therefore, during the disturbance period, the disturbance current can be limited by adjusting the system reactive power and then controlling the converter out put voltage. Based on the above theoretical analysis, an adaptive low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) control strategy for grid-forming energy storage converter is proposed, which can adjust the active and reactive reference values according to the degree of system perturbation, without switching the control strategy and changing the structure of the grid-forming control strategy. The energy storage converter still exhibits the characteristics of the voltage source during the distribution period, and it has the ability of active support for the system. It realizes effective limitation of the distribution current in the course of maintaining the stability of the system. At the same time, the disturbance current is effectively limited. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy is verified by simulation and semi-physical experiment.

Dry-type transformer is to high voltage level, high power density direction, long-term operation in the electro-thermal cooperative multi-stress complex working conditions such as epoxy resin casting insulation is more likely to induce along the surface flashover failure. In order to study the characteristics of epoxy resin along the surface flashover under the stress of electro-thermal cooperative aging, this paper builds a platform for flashover along the surface under AC stress, and it is found that when the aging temperature is 160℃, the flashover field strength of the epoxy resin specimen aged for 80 days is 2.11 kV/mm, which is a decrease of 25.7%. The steepest decrease in the field strength along the surface is found from 0 to 40 days, which is related to the rapid increase in the surface roughness of the specimen from 0 to 40 days.
A plasma model of epoxy resin flashover along the surface is established by combining the continuity equation of charged particles, the average electron energy equation and the interfacial reaction characterization equation, and the dynamic simulation of flashover along the surface at the working frequency is realized. According to the results of the aging experiment, a random function is introduced to change the surface roughness of the medium, and the dielectric constant after aging is combined to simulate the accurate electro-thermal aging behavior of the epoxy resin, and the temporal and spatial evolution laws of the tangential electric field strength, electron density and surface charge density of the epoxy resin in the process of flashover before and after aging are obtained. The simulation results show that the electron density and surface charge density increase during the flashover development of the aging epoxy resin, and the electric field strength at the head of the flow injection reaches 1.183 kV/mm at 12 ns, an increase of nearly 10.87%. With the aging specimen due to the roughness and dielectric constant increase, its surface charge density will occur surge phenomenon, compared with the aging specimen before the increase of 57.66%, so that the electron density quickly reached the threshold value of the electron collapse to flow injection, resulting in the development of the flashover becomes faster.
The mechanism of combined electro-thermal aging on the surface charge of epoxy resin specimens is explained by the trap effect, and the reason for the decrease in the flash field strength of the specimens is clarified. For the specimen aged for 80 days, the deep trap density and energy level increase to 2.56×10¹⁶ eV^-1·m^-3 and 1.06 eV, respectively, resulting in an increase in the probability of charge entry trapping, which leads to a large amount of surface charge accumulation, and the electric field distortion becomes more serious, thus decreasing the flash-coincidence field strength along the surface. The above findings provide theoretical and methodological basis for the fault operation and maintenance and life prediction of dry-type transformers.

Ice disasters can cause serious damage to power transmission network, it is crucial to enhance the resilience of power transmission network during ice disasters. Unlike extreme natural disasters such as hurricanes or earthquakes, ice disasters develop slowly and last long time. It is difficult to predict the development trend of ice disaster accurately due to the influence of microclimate and terrain on their geographic coverage. Currently, the spatiotemporal evolution patterns of ice disasters are not clear. The existing research on improving the resilience of power transmission networks considering the impact of ice disasters have not involved the temporal modeling of ice disaster scenarios. Therefore, the paper proposes a method for temporal modeling of ice storm scenarios based on multispectral satellite remote sensing. By combining multispectral remote sensing image fusion methods based on Laplacian pyramid decomposition, efficient extraction and analysis of the spatial distribution and temporal changes of ice-covered areas in Sentinel-2 satellite remote sensing images are achieved. Using partial differential convolution, ice-covered areas are predicted dynamically based on the fused images, and an ice disaster temporal model is constructed. Additionally, a conditional variational autoencoder is used to generate a set of ice disaster scenarios, which accurately reflect the spatiotemporal characteristics of "source-network-load" during ice disasters.
Considering the interaction between the disaster development process and resilience enhancement measures, the power transmission system resilience can be simultaneously enhanced through both pre-disaster prevention and in-disaster repair measures. This paper proposes a comprehensive resilience evaluation index and constructs a two-stage robust resilience enhancement planning model for power transmission networks based on the set of ice disaster scenarios. The first stage focuses on pre-disaster fixed energy storage configuration and pre-planning of maintenance resources to find the optimal investment decision. The second stage focuses on in-disaster power supply through fixed energy storage and emergency maintenance considering limited maintenance resources, ensuring rapid response from fixed energy storage and maintenance teams after the occurrence time of the ice disaster, which aims to ensure rapid load recovery, maximize system resilience, and minimize system economic losses. The model is iteratively solved using a parallelizable column-and-constraint generation algorithm.
Finally, case studies are conducted using ice-covered remote sensing data from a region in Yunnan and a modified IEEE RTS-79 power transmission system as the test system. The results show that the coordination of fixed energy storage power supply and emergency maintenance can effectively ensure power supply and transmission during ice disasters, as the system resilience improved by 90.97% and total system losses decreased by 43.19% during the ice disasters. Compared with other resilience enhancement strategies, the proposed strategy in this paper balances both economic efficiency and resilience. What’s more, different ice disaster center locations are set in the case study considering the inherent uncertainty of ice disasters. The results demonstrate that for ice disasters with multiple origins, the proposed method effectively ensures power restoration in the transmission system, enhances system resilience, reduces load shedding losses and total costs.

In the existing energy storage system, pumped storage units have the advantages of large capacity, flexible operation, rapid start and stop, etc., and play an important role in the peak frequency regulation of the power system, and pumped storage units and wind power, photovoltaic power generation, etc. with the use of the power system can promote the new energy consumption level. However, the complex frequency domain characteristics presented by the multi-timescale control of the power electronic devices are prone to interacting with the power grid and triggering the oscillation phenomenon. Currently, there are relatively few studies on impedance modeling of the variable-speed pumped storage unit with full-size converter and their stability analysis based on impedance criterion. The impedance modeling of the variable-speed pumped storage unit with full-size converter and its analysis are of great significance for the future stability analysis of large-scale pumped storage units connected to the power grid. Therefore, this paper establishes an impedance model of the variable-speed pumped storage unit with full-size converter taking into account the frequency coupling effect, and analyzes the stability of the grid-connected system of the pumped storage unit based on the impedance model.
In the process of establishing the equivalent impedance model of the variable-speed pumped storage unit with full-size converter, the state-space model of the hydraulic turbine and the synchronous motor are firstly established, and the impedance model in the dq coordinate system is obtained on the basis of the model. After that, the impedance models of the machine-side converter and the grid-side converter are established respectively, and finally the equivalent impedance model of the variable-speed pumped storage unit with full-size converter considering the frequency coupling effect is established taking into account the effect of the grid impedance.
Further, the correctness of the impedance model of the variable-speed pumped storage unit with full-size converter was verified using the frequency scanning method. Based on the established impedance model, the grid-connected stability of the pumped storage unit under different grid impedance conditions is investigated by using Nyquist stability criterion. And the effects of key turbine and governor parameters as well as common control loop parameters such as phase-locked loop, DC voltage outer loop and current loop parameters of the full-power converter on the impedance characteristics of the unit as well as on the grid-connected stability are also investigated.
This study draws the following conclusions: (1) A more accurate equivalent impedance model of the variable-speed pumped storage unit with full-size converter that takes into account the frequency coupling effect is established. (2) As the grid impedance increases, i.e., the grid strength becomes weaker, the stability of the unit deteriorates. (3) Under the same grid strength, the bandwidths of the phase-locked loop and the current loop have a greater impact on the system stability, while the bandwidth of the DC voltage loop has a smaller impact on its stability. In addition, the values of the key parameters of the turbine as well as the governor have no significant effect on the impedance characteristics of the unit and very little effect on the stability of the system.

Magnetically coupled resonant wireless power transfer (MCR-WPT) technology has received significant attention due to its ability to realize mid-range power transfer. However, the transmission characteristics of MCR-WPT systems are susceptible to variations in coupling coefficients and loads. Parity-time (PT) symmetry has been introduced into the WPT system (PT-WPT) to achieve constant power and high-efficiency transmission over medium distances. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the PT-WPT technology.

First, the paper introduces the PT-WPT system’s basic structure and operating mechanism. It analyzes how the system balances energy gain and loss through the nonlinear saturated negative resistor, allowing it to maintain stable power transmission under varying coupling conditions. Coupled-mode and circuit models are used to construct the PT-WPT system. The two models’ similarities and differences in the energy transmission mechanism, PT symmetry conditions, and system characteristics are described. In addition, PT-WPT can be considered a novel wireless power transfer technology.

Next, the paper discusses the construction methods of nonlinear saturated negative resistors, which can be divided into two categories based on the components used: operational amplifiers and power converters. While operational amplifiers provide a simple and low-cost solution, they are limited in power output. In contrast, power converters, such as half-bridge, full-bridge, and class E inverters, enable higher power output and efficiency but require more complex control strategies. Then, the advantages and disadvantages of these methods are discussed, and directions for improving the design of negative resistors are given.

This paper introduces the different types of coupling mechanisms and the implementation of charging functions. Among the topologies of PT-WPT systems, single-transmitter-single-receiver is the most basic structure; high-order compensation networks and the introduction of relay coils are commonly used to extend the transmission distance of the PT-WPT system. Multi-transmitter/multi-receiver can also improve the system’s reliability and realize stable power transmission in multi-load systems. Furthermore, the charging control strategies are investigated to realize the constant power and constant current/voltage functions independent of the coupling coefficient and load variation, further promoting the practicalization of PT-WPT systems.

Finally, this paper summarizes the existing research on PT-WPT systems and future research issues. PT-WPT technology is expected to find broader applications in the future and promote the development of wireless charging technology.

The arc plasma torch can be used for pre experiments on ground erosion performance testing of spacecraft flight materials，which can save costs. The three-phase AC arc plasma torch has the advantages of simple power supply and reliable operation. The hollow electrode structure with dual inlet channels can not only improve the electrode life, but also achieve a wider range of power control. However, the design of plasma torches with this type of electrode structure is more complex and there is limited research and application in China. A three-phase AC plasma torch with magnetic motion, tangential inlet, and supersonic jet was developed and numerically modeled and experimentally studied.
Firstly, a three-dimensional turbulent MHD multiphysics coupling simulation model of a hollow electrode three-phase AC arc plasma torch with a dual end inlet structure was established, and the flow state and electric thermal characteristics of the arc plasma inside the torch were obtained. Secondly, the influence laws of air intake, working current, air intake distribution ratio, and working frequency on the electric field, magnetic field, temperature field, flow field distribution, and arc characteristics inside the plasma torch were studied and revealed. Finally, the correctness of the numerical model was verified by comparing the arc voltage, nozzle outlet temperature, and arc root position under various operating conditions in simulation and experiment.
The conclusion drawn from the study is as follows: (1) In a three-phase AC plasma torch, aerodynamic and electromagnetic forces dominate the flow characteristics of the arc root. During the process of increasing the intake volume from 30 g/s to 60 g/s, the cooling effect of the gas flowing along the wall is greater than the heat generated by the arc column, resulting in a downward trend in temperature; And the larger the intake volume, the more obvious the compression effect of the cold air layer on the arc, and the higher the arc pressure; The higher the working current, the higher the plasma temperature and jet velocity. (2) In a hollow electrode AC plasma torch with dual inlet ducts, changing the air intake distribution ratio can alter the position of the arc root along the electrode axis and the magnitude of the output power. Increasing the air intake distribution ratio can make the arc more significantly stretched in the axial direction, the arc longer, and the arc root closer to the arc back cover. (3) When the operating frequency is 1 kHz, the arc has a more stable motion trend, and the rotation speed of the arc root is five times that of the power frequency. The contact area with the electrode is reduced, which reduces the degree of electrode erosion and can improve the electrode life.
