MULTI-COIL INDUCTION PLASMA TORCH FOR SOLID STATE POWER SUPPLY

摘要

An induction plasma torch comprises a tubular torch body, a gas distributor head located at the proximal end of the torch body for supplying at least on e gaseous substance into the chamber within the torch body, a higher frequency power supply connected to a first induction coil mounted coaxial to the tubular torch body, a lower frequency solid state power supply connected to a plurality of second induction coils mounted coaxial to the tubular torch bod y between the first induction coil and the distal end of this torch body. The first induction coil provides the inductive energy necessary to ignite the gaseous substance to form a plasma. The second induction coils provide the working energy necessary to operate the plasma torch. The second induction coils can be connected to the solid state power supply in series and/or in parallel to match the impedance of this solid state power supply.
