Abstract

Arc behavior is very important to the performance of a low-voltage circuit breaker. A 3-D arc model for a certain type of miniature circuit breaker is built and calculated in this paper. The arc evolution is described in detail according to the temperature distribution images from the simulation results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
