Abstract

The paper presents the results of a study of the developed pulsed plasma generator based on the cylindrical foil electric explosion. The generator is used to form large-scale toroidal plasma vortices in atmospheric air. The influence of the specific stored energy on the phase composition of the plasma flow and the lifetime of plasmoids using a high-speed camera was studied. It was found that large condensed particles in the flow do not participate in the vortex motion and cause the destruction of plasma vortices. The formation conditions of stable plasma vortices were determined.
