Original Abstract

This paper deals with influence of electromagnetic field and thermodynamics in various periods of extinguishing process in low voltage circuit breakers. The individual influences are analysed with the help of combination of numerical and experimental methods. The numerical simulation was performed for thermodynamic analysis in module FLOTRAN of ANSYS program and for electromagnetic analysis in ANSYS program. Experiments were performed at our department on laboratory short-circuit test bench. High-speed camera was used for arc behavior diagnostics.
