Abstract
The invention features a frame for a plasma arc torch cartridge. The frame includes a thermally conductive frame body having a longitudinal axis, a first end configured to connect to a first consumable component, and a second end configured to mate with a second consumable component. The frame body surrounds at least a portion of the second consumable component. The frame also includes a set of flow passages formed within the frame body. The set of flow passages fluidly connects an internal surface of the frame body and an external surface of the frame body. The set of flow holes is configured to impart a fluid flow pattern about the second consumable component.
