Electric Arcs: Experiments Upon Arcs Between Different Electrodes In Various Environments And Their Explanation is a scientific book written by Clement D. Child. The book is a comprehensive study of electric arcs, which are electric discharges that occur between two electrodes. The author presents the results of his experiments on arcs between different electrodes in various environments. The book begins with an introduction to electric arcs and their properties, including their temperature, luminosity, and current density. The author then goes on to describe the different types of electrodes used in his experiments, including carbon, copper, and tungsten. He also discusses the effects of different gases and vapors on the behavior of the arcs.The bulk of the book is dedicated to the author's experiments and their results. He describes in detail the apparatus used in the experiments and the methods used to measure the various properties of the arcs. The author also provides numerous graphs and tables to illustrate his findings.The final section of the book is devoted to the author's explanation of the behavior of electric arcs. He discusses the role of ionization and recombination in the arc, as well as the effects of temperature and pressure. The author also provides a theoretical model of the arc, based on his experimental results.Overall, Electric Arcs: Experiments Upon Arcs Between Different Electrodes In Various Environments And Their Explanation is a valuable resource for scientists and engineers interested in the properties and behavior of electric arcs. The book provides a thorough and detailed account of the author's experiments and their results, as well as a theoretical explanation of the behavior of the arc.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
