Abstract

The development of Teflon ablation kinetic model is described which is caused by plasma in ablation-controlled arcs. The energy flux conservation is found to be effected with internal degrees of freedom. The average molecular mass change with temperature on mass, momentum and energy fluxes conservation are also analyzed. The modifications of governing set of equations are significant to determine vaporization of Teflon and compound materials in ablation controlled arcs.
