Embodiment Construction
[0085] figure 1 An example plasma torch 50 is shown that may be used with various aspects and embodiments of the plasma arc torch cooling systems, apparatus, and methods described herein. refer to figure 1 , the plasma torch 50 may include an electrode 60 , a nozzle 100 and a shield 150 . The torch 50 may be in electrical communication (eg, using a current carrying cable (not shown)) with a power source (not shown) and receive electrical current from the power source. The current received from the power source is transferred to the electrode 60 towards the nozzle 100 through the current path.
[0086] In use, a gas (eg, plasma gas) is directed to a plasma boost chamber 80 defined between the electrode 60 and the nozzle 100 . The plasma gas may be accelerated within plasma booster chamber 80 (e.g., the plasma gas may be heated, which reduces the density of the gas and increases its volume and velocity as the plasma is formed) to pass through the electrodes 60 and The plas...
