Abstract
The double-break vacuum circuit breaker (VCB) effectively solves the problem of voltage saturation of the single-break VCB and improves the performance of the VCB. However, there is currently a lack of research on the prestrike characteristics of combined series vacuum interrupters (VIs) composed of different contact structures when closing under DC voltage. In this paper, the prestrike characteristics of a single VI and a combined series VIs with a cup-type axial magnetic field (AMF) contact and a spiral-type transverse magnetic field (TMF) contact are studied experimentally and numerically. The prestrike characteristics include 50 % prestrike gap (d50), prestrike gap dispersion (σpre), prestrike voltage (Uf) and prestrike field strength (E). Two single VIs and four series VIs are AMF single VI, TMF single VI, AMF-AMF series VIs, AMF-TMF series VIs, TMF-AMF series VIs and TMF-TMF series VIs. This research can provide a basis for the design of the series VIs applied in the phase-controlled closing, and provide theoretical support for further analysis of the prestrike characteristics of the series VIs under capacitive switching.
期刊介绍:
Vacuum is an international rapid publications journal with a focus on short communication. All papers are peer-reviewed, with the review process for short communication geared towards very fast turnaround times. The journal also published full research papers, thematic issues and selected papers from leading conferences.
A report in Vacuum should represent a major advance in an area that involves a controlled environment at pressures of one atmosphere or below.
The scope of the journal includes:
1. Vacuum; original developments in vacuum pumping and instrumentation, vacuum measurement, vacuum gas dynamics, gas-surface interactions, surface treatment for UHV applications and low outgassing, vacuum melting, sintering, and vacuum metrology. Technology and solutions for large-scale facilities (e.g., particle accelerators and fusion devices). New instrumentation ( e.g., detectors and electron microscopes).
2. Plasma science; advances in PVD, CVD, plasma-assisted CVD, ion sources, deposition processes and analysis.
3. Surface science; surface engineering, surface chemistry, surface analysis, crystal growth, ion-surface interactions and etching, nanometer-scale processing, surface modification.
4. Materials science; novel functional or structural materials. Metals, ceramics, and polymers. Experiments, simulations, and modelling for understanding structure-property relationships. Thin films and coatings. Nanostructures and ion implantation.
