In this paper, the arc region of a gas circuit breaker (GCB) is analyzed using the fast moving least square reproducing kernel method (FMLSRKM) which can simultaneously calculate an approximated solution and its derivatives. For this problem, an axisymmetric and inhomogeneous formulation of the FMLSRKM is used and applied. The field distribution obtained by the FMLSRKM is compared to that of the finite element method. Then, a whole breaking period of a GCB is simulated, including analysis of the arc gas flow by finite volume fluid in the cell, and the electric field of the arc region using the FMLSRKM.

This paper shows the formulation of fast moving least square reproducing kernel method (FMLSRKM) which is a kind of meshfree methods. FMLSRKM has some advantages compared to conventional numerical techniques such as finite element method. For simple analysis on a rectangular waveguide, point collocation scheme is introduced and applied.
