Experiments were made on an electric arc applying a porous graphite anode cooled by a transpiring gas ( Argon ) .

Thus , the energy transferred from the arc to the anode was partly fed back into the arc .

It was shown that by proper anode design the net energy loss of the arc to the anode could be reduced to approximately 15 % of the total arc energy A detailed energy balance of the anode was established .
