A larger electrode gap, means the distance between the two electrodes, shows
increasing yield. The maximum electrode gap to reach stable discharges is defined by
the Marx-Generator setup. Larger electrode gap will decrease the discharge
probability.
Figure 6:
Parameter 3 - water gap influence on yield
The water gap is defined by the distance of the electrodes to the rod.
The process shows relatively low sensitivity to a water gap of up to 25mm, with
increasing water gap the electrohydraulic effect is more pronounced. This leads to
coarser products and less fragmentation effect.
