A gas discharge between two liquid electrolyte electrodes was studied experimentally in the current range of 0.5-3.5 A. As liquid electrolytes, aqueous solutions of sodium chloride, sodium carbonate, potassium hydroxide and copper sulfate, as well as tap water, were used. The effect of composition of electrolytes on characteristics of discharge was studied at different polarities of connection to the power source.

A gas discharge between a liquid electrolyte cathode and a copper anode was experimentally investigated in the current range of 1-15 A in the presence of disturbances on electrolyte surface. Two options were considered. In the first variant, disturbances were created by supplying gas to the inside of surface layer of electrolyte. And in the second version, a two-level cathode zone was organised on the electrolyte surface.
