全局磁场作用下多组份真空电弧三维特性研究

Vacuum arc characteristics and its magnetic field control is critical for the interruption characteristics of vacuum interrupters. In the actual axial magnetic field (AMF) electrode, vacuum arc is controlled by global magnetic fields (GMF), which includes AMF and radial magnetic field generated by electrode system, azimuthal magnetic field generated by vacuum arc, and also transverse magnetic field generated by external bus-bar, not only AMF. The interaction among GMF and multi-component arc column plasma, electrode process, liquid droplet is very significant. In this project, self-consistent model with consideration of bidirectional coupling between GMF and vacuum arc behavior will be established, and related experimental verification will be conducted. Based on the simulation and related experiments, the evolution law of vacuum arc and liquid droplets subjected to GMF will be researched. At first, GMF calculation model of electrode system with consideration of arc deformation is established. Then, self-consistent model with consideration of bidirectional coupling between GMF and three dimensional vacuum arc characteristics will be established, and its numerical solution method will be studied. The above vacuum arc should include the interaction between electrode process (cathode spots distribution and anode vapor), liquid droplet and arc column plasma. Then, based on the above model, 3d vacuum arc under different GMF conditions will be simulated, and the evolution law of vacuum arc temperature, liquid droplet velocity, density of plasma species, electrode erosion, arc voltage, and other parameters will be researched. At the same time, the special experiments will be designed to research micro-parameters of vacuum arc subjected to GMF, and experimental results will be used to verify the simulation results. Based on the research of this project, the evolution law and its physical mechanism of vacuum arc characteristics subjected to GMF will be disclosed, and it also can supply theoretical support for the development of vacuum interrupters towards large-capacity, miniaturization, and higher-voltage class.

真空电弧特性及其磁场控制对真空开关的开断性能十分关键。在实际的纵磁电极中，真空电弧处于电极系统产生纵向、径向、电弧自生旋向磁场及外部母线产生横向磁场并存的全局磁场作用之下，而并非单纯的纵向磁场。全局磁场与多组份弧柱、液滴、电极过程之间的相互作用明显。本项目通过建模仿真及实验验证的方法，研究全局磁场下多组份真空电弧和液滴特性的演变规律。先建立电弧形变及外电路条件下电极系统的全局磁场模型；再建立全局磁场与多组份真空电弧三维特性(含电极过程、液滴与弧柱的相互作用)双向耦合的自洽模型，研究其数值求解方法；并对不同全局磁场下的真空电弧进行仿真，研究电弧温度、液滴速度、等离子体组份密度、电极烧蚀、电弧电压等参数的变化规律；同时，设计实验，研究全局磁场下的真空电弧微观特性，并对仿真进行验证。通过研究，掌握全局磁场下真空电弧特性的演变规律与物理机制，为真空开关向大容量、小型化及高电压等级发展提供理论借鉴。
