Abstract
Abstract The dynamics of a low-power (<40 W) rotating gliding arc in atmospheric pressure argon sustained by a homemade dual DC power supply between a conical cathode and a grounded sleeve anode and forced into motion by the combined action of a vortex gas flow (<26.3 SLPM) and axial magnetic field (~0.043–0.122 T) was studied. High-speed imaging and electrical diagnostics were used to gain an understanding of the projected arc length, position of the attachment point on the central cathode, and frequency of arc rotation. The electrical signals revealed a glow-type mode of operation, which characteristically low current and high voltage. The square root dependency of the rotating arc frequency on the applied current predicted by a simplified model considering the gas vortex drag and Lorentz forces was confirmed with measurements. Rotation frequencies in the ~100–300 Hz range with average projected arc lengths of 4–8 mm creating a large stabilized reactive volume were obtained. We further demonstrated that the Lorentz force acting on the rotating gliding arc is equivalent to the hydrodynamic drag caused by an argon flow rate of ~8 SLPM for this device configuration.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
