Abstract
This work presents an experimental device designed to obtain spherical part icles by means of a rotating electric are. A rotation frequency of the elec tric are of 750 s(-1), a voltage of 50 V (dc) and a current of 100 A was us ed. The mass flow rate was 3 g.min(-1). Under these conditions particles of 15 to 20 mu m in diameter were obtained.
