Abstract
Calculations are presented for the estimation of the fraction of an incoming gas flow that passes through a plasma volume which is subject to buoyant forces. The method of analysis is an extension of that proposed by Lawton for the zero-gravity case. It is shown that buoyant forces are significant in determining the mass fraction of gas flowing through low-velocity plasma devices such as the induction heated plasma and the electrically augmented flame.
