Abstract
The results of optical emission spectroscopy (OES) investigation of plasma of electric arc discharges in steadystate mode between Cu-Cr composite electrodes, manufactured at different sintered temperatures: 750, 850, 950 or 1050 °C, is presented. In particular, the impact of sintering temperature on erosion resistanceof such composite materials, which was determined in indirect manner by estimation of metal vapours content in the midsection of discharge gaps, is studied by the analysis of plasma parameters. These contents were calculated in assumption of local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) on the base of experimentally obtained radial distributions of plasma temperature and electron density.
