VOLUMETRICALLY OSCILLATING PLASMA FLOWS |
摘要 |
Volumetrically oscillating plasma flows, the volume of which controllably expands and contracts with time, are disclosed. Volumetrically oscillating plasma flows are generated by providing an energy with a power density that changes with time to the plasma-generating gas to form a plasma flow. The changes in the energy power density result in plasma flow volumetric oscillations. Volumetric oscillations with a frequency of above 20,000 Hz results in ultrasonic acoustic waves, which are known to be beneficial for various medical applications. System for providing volumetrically oscillating plasma flows and a variety of surgical non-surgical applications of such flows are also disclosed. |

1. A system comprising:
a. a power supply for generating an electric current having a low current level and pulses reaching a high current level, wherein the pulses have a ramp rate of at least 25 A per 10 μs, and b. a plasma-generating device for
i. heating a plasma-generating gas to a first temperature with the low current level of the electric current, wherein the first temperature is at least 10,000 K,ii. heating the plasma-generating gas to a second temperature with the high level of the electric current, wherein the second temperature is at least 10,000 K above the first temperature; andiii. discharging from an outlet the heated plasma-generating gas as a plasma flow that expands in volume during the electric current pulses. |
