A non-arcing discharge regime operates at high voltage and low currents, while an arc discharge regime operates at low voltage and high currents. Two general types of plasma discharge regimes can be distinguished by their electrical characteristics and their modes of operation. 6,322,757 and 5,887,554, the teachings of which are incorporated herein by reference). Plasmatron fuel converters reform hydrocarbons to generate a hydrogen rich gas through the use of plasma discharges. The present invention relates to the field of fuel reforming technology and more particularly to a method and apparatus for a plasmatron fuel converter having decoupled air flow control.
