Computer Simulation and Visualisation of Complex Systems: Arcs and Hot Gas Flow in Auto-expansion Circuit Breakers

Auto-expansion circuit breakers (also known as the self-blast circuit breakers) are an advanced generation of high voltage switchgear. This type of circuit breaker uses the arc's energy to generate a high pressure SOurce in the expansion volume (also known as the heating chamber) to create the...
