Modelling and simulation of nozzle ablation in high-voltage circuit-breakers

Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 2000
In the present paper, a new approach to modelling the ablation phenomenon using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tools coupled with a physical radiation model is proposed, implemented and validated for application in circuit-breaker arc studies. The present work shows that the principal characteristics of ablation-dominated arcs can be simulated ...

A New Artificial Line for Testing High-Voltage Circuit Breakers

IEEE Power Engineering Review, 1983
In a high-power laboratory, artificial lines are used for short-line fault testing on high-voltage circuit breakers. Over the years, several different configurations of artificial lines have been designed and used in testing laboratories. This article describes an artificial line for testing circuit breakers with current ratings up to 100 kArms.

High-voltage oil circuit breakers for rapid reclosing duty

Electrical Engineering, 1944
Experience has shown that high-speed reclosing of circuit breakers on high-voltage transmission lines is of considerable value in maintaining system stability and continuity of service. This paper describes a new line of outdoor oil circuit breakers and the special design features which make them suitable for 20- and 35-cycle reclosing duty at voltages

Computer aided design of synthetic test circuits for high voltage circuit-breakers

IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery, 1989
Developments in electrical power transmission systems require the use of circuit-breakers with increasing breaking capacity. To test these equipments, direct testing is no longer feasible. This means that synthetic tests are necessary. These tests require circuits with a response specified by ANSI, IEC, ..., standards.

Switching of Extra-High-Voltage Circuits IV-Compound Circuit Test Facility for High-Voltage Circuit Breakers

IEEE Transactions on Power Apparatus and Systems, 1964
A compound circuit is described for development and acceptance testing of circuit-breaker modules and circuit breakers up to 50,000 equivalent 3-phase module mva (megavoltamperes). The paper discusses high-current-source voltage requirements, synchronization of high-voltage-source application with final current zero, and high-voltage-source impedance ...
