Periodic discharge in water flow was investigated using optic spectrometer and 1000 fps video camera with the discharge pulse up to several milliseconds long regulated by water flow speed. Copper drops were found on the cathode surface in the case of copper-tube anode. In spite of water cooling anode can reach melting point. Optic spectra were compared for several materials of electrodes. For copper electrodes it was found that anode is the main contributor of copper in discharge plasma.
