An air circuit breaker (ACB) with novel double-breaker contact and permanent magnet actuator (PMA) is presented. Three-dimensional (3-D) finite element method (FEM) is employed to compute the electro-dynamic repulsion forces, including the Holm force and Lorentz force, which are acting on the static and movable contacts. The electro-dynamic repulsion forces of different contact pieces are computed, illustrating there is an optimal number of contact pieces for the ACB being studied. The electro-dynamic repulsion force of each contact, which varies from the outer position to the inner position, is also computed. Finally, the contacts of the double-breaker are manufactured according to the analyzed results to validate the simulations.

To the optimization design of molded case circuit breakers(MCCBs), it is necessary and important to calculate the electro-dynamic repulsion force acting on the movable conductor. With 3-D finite element nonlinear analysis, according to the equations among current-magnetic field-repulsion force and taking into account the ferromagnet, contact bridge model is introduced to simulate the current constriction between contacts, so Lorentz and Holm force acting on the movable conductor and contact, respectively, can be integrated to calculate. Coupled with circuit equations, the opening time of movable contact also can be obtained using iteration with the restriction of contact force. Simulation and experiment for repulsion forte and opening time of five different configuration models have been investigated. The results indicate that the proposed method is effective and capable of evaluating new design of contact systems in MCCBs.

본 논문에서는 컴플라이언스 특성의 발을 갖는 이족 로봇의 다리 메커니즘을 제시한 후, 이족 로봇을 위한 전형적인 보행 패턴에서 발의 접촉 반발력과 이것이 무릎과 힙 관절에 미치는 영향을 고찰하고자 한다. 이러한 분석은 보행 로봇이 걸음 동작을 수행할때, 발의 물리적인 접촉력의 영향을 파악하는데 있어서 유용하고, 다리 메커니즘의 관절 사양을 결정하는데 활용될 수 있다. 결과적으로, 로봇 발 메커니즘의 컴플라이언스 특성이 발의 접촉 반발력에 의해 영향을 받는 보행 다리 관절의토오크 특성을 완화시키는데 기여할 수 있음을 보인다.

It is necessary for calculation of repulsion forces acting on the closed electric contacts flowing over-current, e.g. inrush current and overload currents, to do optimum design of switching devices. In this paper, the farces and flux densities generated by currents at the contact point when circuit breakers are in closed state are obtained by using 3D finite element methode. To be convinced of the results, we measure electrogmanetic repulsion forces on contacts by measuring voltage between opened contacts in MCCB.

As computer power increased, the system with complex phenomenon has been analyzed with the help of CAE software which can handle the coupled physics, such as electromagnetic, structure, thermal and fluid physics. To predict the electromagnetic repulsion force and the temperature distribution of an air circuit breaker with electric contact mechanism, ANSYS/EMAG, FLOTRAN can be used. Although some assumptions and simplifications were introduced to simulate the model, results from the computational model were in good agreement with actual measurements obtained from experiments.

This paper describes electromagnetic repulsion force of multipolar axial magnetic field type electrodes for vacuum interrupter used in vacuum circuit breaker. It was distinguished that repulsion force of multipolar axial magnetic field type electrode in consideration of eddy current effect between upper electrode and lower electrode by finite element method. And it was found out that suitable contact weight of multipolar axial magnetic field type electrode for vacuum circuit breaker from repulsion force analysis results by finite element method.

This paper describes an improved model that can be used for configuring a non-contact pneumatic head to handle a large sheet of glass. The cylindrical head model is of a large size (70 mm). It operates on vortex flow, which can simultaneously generate suction and repulsion over the flat object's surface. The head allows for the minimal non-contact lifting of objects weighing over 3N by using reference conditions (working pressure and head dimensions). Additionally, a functional flow-guide is applied for inducing a developing tangential vortex flow to increase suction and repulsion to the reference head. The cylindrical flow-guide is associated with relatively low tangential velocity. The improved model generates greater lifting force than the reference model, as verified experimentally.

The behaviour of contactors protected by arcs under short-circuit currents is analysed using a simple model to represent the electric circuit and the contactor. In most cases, the protection of contactors against short-circuit currents is entrusted to fuses. Fuses are suitable for preventing excessive damage to the contactor, or parts of the contactor, under short-circuit conditions. In particular, they are capable of limiting the thermal and electrodynamic stresses which can lead to arcing or welding together of the contacts of a contactor. This paper is the Dynamic Motion Analysis of a Moving Contact by Electromagnetic Repulsion Force in Molded Case Circuit Breaker(MCCB)
