The Role of Energy and Duration of Discharging Pulse During the Micro Geometry Changing Process of Metallic Parts Surfaces by Applying Electric Discharges in Pulse

Abstract

In this paper there are presented the results of experimental researches regarding the meniscus formation as Taylor cones on the parts surfaces with electric discharges in pulse (EDP) application. We search for the influence of the accumulated energy on the capacitor battery and on the pulse duration on the micro geometry. It is being demonstrated that the size of formed meniscuses depend on the energetic regime of processing, the size of the interstice, the duration of electric discharges in pulse and the thermo-physical properties of part material.
