An Enhanced Huels Type Plasma Torch that generates over $5000^{\circ}C$ plasma arc flow is the core equipment of arc-jet wind tunnel. It is applied to the high-tech areas such as a new materials development and eco-friendly industry. Although the Enhanced Huels Type Plasma Torch produce uniform flow of high purity, its complicated structure and operating condition makes the commercialization of it to be difficult. The 400kW arc-jet generator using the enhanced Huels type plasma torch was tested. The result of this study showed that the torch was operated in the range of 280~320 A and 250~1350 V.
