The surfaces are designed to enhance roughness, with an amplitude parameter (Sq, RMS) of 0.1-1 µm. An established finite element model of a bi-layered rough contact surface is extended to include the pre-processing and analysis of a model rough surface. The application is a gold-coated multi-walled carbon nanotube composite (Au/CNT), designed as a solution for electrical contacts in low current switching applications. To determine the contact resistance for these surfaces, a preliminary step is required to determine the effective resistivity.Model surfaces are compared to a measured rough surface, where the sample length of the surface and the sensor interaction with the measured surface are identified as key parameters. The finite element model provides an output of the interactions between a hemi-spherical ball and the rough Au/CNT surface, with the results shown as a map of the points of contact as a function of the applied force (mN). An automated method of post processing the image data is used to determine the number of contact points and the best fitting radius of the contact area. It is shown that the contact resistance increases with surface roughness (Sq).","PeriodicalId":268345,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 66th Holm Conference on Electrical Contacts and Intensive Course (HLM)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114422877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, it is of great significance to find out methods to reduce the temperature rise of the switch cabinet. In this paper, based on a 400V low-voltage switchgear, a three-dimensional simulation model is established using the electromagnetic-thermal-fluid multi-physics coupling method. Under the conditions of simulating natural convection, considering eddy current effects, proximity effects, and skin effects, heat transfer methods such as thermal conduction, thermal convection, and thermal radiation are comprehensively used to calculate and analyze the thermal distribution characteristics of the distribution cabinet shells and three-phase current-carrying conductors. Moreover, a temperature-rise experiment is performed to verify the feasibility and accuracy of the electromagnetic-thermal-fluid multi-physics coupling method and the accuracy and effectiveness of the calculation model under the current simulation conditions. In addition, in order to reduce the temperature rise of the cabinet, A strategy for optimizing the switchgear is proposed, and the heat distribution characteristics of the optimized model is calculated using the multi-physics coupling method. The results show that the temperature rise of the switch cabinets of the scheme has been reduced in different degrees, which effectively solves the overheating problem of the switch cabinet.","PeriodicalId":268345,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 66th Holm Conference on Electrical Contacts and Intensive Course (HLM)","volume":"2009 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130218887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This phenomenon leads to the contact point heating or even melting, with a risk of sticking. Sticking can prevent the product from opening if the opening force is not sufficient to detach the contacts, causing serious damage to the electrical installation and to persons. It is therefore essential to avoid any welding of the contacts. That is why a test bench was designed and built in order to determine the temperature rise and the conditions leading to static melting. The current used had a waveform and an amplitude similar to that of the short-circuit current.This paper presents electrical measurements coupled with microscopic measurements of contact surfaces: 3D optical imaging (x500), and electron imaging (x150 to 2000) for surface topology and chemical distribution. This allowed us to better interpret the electrical behavior of the contact point. Investigations were performed according to several parameters: current amplitude passing through the contact point and contact force preset via a spring. Based on the results, the influence of these parameters on the contact voltage and on the state of the contact surface was characterized.","PeriodicalId":268345,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 66th Holm Conference on Electrical Contacts and Intensive Course (HLM)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123860925","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The surface used is a Gold Coated (500 nm), forest of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (50 μm), referred to as Au/CNT. The surface has been previously investigated for endurance at low current levels of 4 μA, to characterize the cold switching performance over 4 billion switching cycles and tested in a cantilever MEMs test system with 10 mA (hot switching) over 0.5 billion cycles. This investigation studies the current loading level with a focus on the transient voltages during the opening process. The investigation is undertaken using a piezoelectric (PZT) actuator, as part of an in-situ test apparatus (ICE). Results are compared to the transient voltage on a reference carbon nanotube surface without the gold coating, under the same switching conditions. The results for the Au/CNT surface show that the voltage transients are dominated by molten metal bridge phenomena up to 300 mA above which a previously unreported switching transient is observed. The higher current levels (300 to 600 mA) are shown to puncture the gold surface after 10’s of switching cycles exposing the CNT. Under this condition the exposed CNT become conductive and thermally decompose (pyrolyze).","PeriodicalId":268345,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 66th Holm Conference on Electrical Contacts and Intensive Course (HLM)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122543028","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
