Physics:Ohmic plasma
From HandWiki
An ohmic plasma is a plasma that is maintained and/or replenished by the heat produced when a plasma current flows through its resistance as in the induced poloidal magnetic field of a tokamak. Efficiency decreases as the plasma temperature increases. The mechanism is similar to the heat created with an electric current flowing through a resistance (ohmic).[1]
