Abstract
Recent experiments have given closer insight into the temperature and pressure profiles of copper vapor arcs in simple geometries. It is of great importance to be able to understand the measured data by comparing it to simulations on similarly simplified configurations. We present simulation results and discuss possible comparisons.
