Identification of plasma jet temperature using inverse heat transfer problem solution

Abstract

 The method of air plasma jet temperature identification on the edge of the atmospheric plasmotron nozzle was offered and tested. For the first time for this purposes the solution of the boundary inverse heat transfer problem was used employing the experimnetal data of heat receiver body surface which is not in contact with plasma. Plasma jet temperature identified on the edge of the atmospheric plasmotron nozzle by the proposed method is in a good agreement with the data of other researchers.
