  • Abstract
    The excitation temperature is measured in an argon-CO2 thermal plasma by optical emission spectroscopy. The theoretical calculations of concentration used to determine excitation temperature and also the numerical Abel inversion are presented. The effect of CO 2 molecule upon this plasma is studied as a function of the Ar-CO2 mixture composition and discharge current. The excitation temperature is ranging from 7000 K to 11000 K, and excitation temperature gradient from 200 K/mm to 600 K/mm
