Forced convective jet applied onto carbon arc plasma has significant effects on the formation of carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) containing multiwalled carbon nanotubes mixed with multishelled nanoparticles produced by the “arc in water” method. There is an optimized flow rate of the convective jet that leads to the highest production yield, largest hydrodynamic diameter of the products, and the reduced crystalline defects. With the convective flow rate of 1.36 dm3/min, the highest yield and production rate of CNPs could be obtained at 48.5% and 9.32 g/h, respectively. These effects of the forced convective jet originate from the enhanced quenching of carbon clusters vaporized from graphite anode. Analysis of convective flow field subjected to the arc plasma zone is conducted to indicate that synthesis of CNPs by the arc in water method can be elaborately controlled.
