The circuit breaker is an important part of control and protection in the power system. Mechanical failure is the main fault of circuit breakers, and the loosening of fasteners is one of the typical mechanical faults. The self-loosening of bolted joints is closely related to the vibration, especially transverse vibration. There is strong vibration while the circuit breakers are opened and closed....
The residual axial magnetic field (AMF) at current zero, which is caused by large $\mathrm{d}i/\mathrm{d}t$ during the forced current-zero stage of DC interruption based on the technique of artificial current zero, has a significant influence on the interruption performance of the vacuum circuit breaker. In this paper, a model of AMF contacts system is developed by finite-element-analysis software...
With the development of HVDC technology, the demand of HVDC circuit breaker is more and more urgent, where the testing standards for HVDC circuit breaker is still absent. It's impractical to carry out test in the real HVDC system at present. The high-power HVDC source is also a high-cost scheme. Therefore, in most of the experiments of HVDC circuit breaker, the current is supplied by AC source. In...
With the development of HVDC technology, the demand of HVDC circuit breaker is becoming urgent, whereas, a commercial HVDC circuit breaker is still not available. A prototype of HVDC circuit breaker based on artificial current zero and its testing scheme is proposed in this paper. Then the DC interruption experiment is carried on. In the DC interruption experiment, an 8kA DC current is interrupted...
HVDC interruption technique is the bottleneck problem of flexible HVDC project. The HVDC vacuum circuit breaker based on artificial current zero is a feasible and effective method to solve this problem. In this circuit breaker, the parameters of the commutation branch have a vital influence for the breaking process. In this paper, the interruption process for HVDC based on artificial current zero...
Vacuum circuit breakers have been being widely used in the electric power system in recent years for its excellent breaking capability. The whole interrupting process can be divided into two main stages: the arcing phase and the post-arc dielectric recovery phase. The later phase has a decisive effect on the whole interruption which has attracted many concerns. The dissipation of the residual plasma...
For a kind of commercial MCCB, arc current, arc voltage, internal pressure of arc extinguish chamber, and arc moving images under different breaking conditions have been measured respectively, based on ATiS BE12 data acquisition system, pressure sensors and high-speed camera. Based on Kistler sensor and electromagnetic screen cover, an arc extinguish chamber internal pressure measuring method has...
