To effectively design high voltage (HV) circuit breakers, the upwind meshfree (UM) scheme which was proposed by Choe et al.[5] and Park et al.[6] is tested. The UM scheme is implemented to a simplified model for the HV circuit breaker and showed a robust behavior even in a severe boundary condition. A good shock capturing is shown in the computations and a delicate gas diffusion through a slit is also computed, which is usually difficult to catch. Vector splitting method is employed to exploit the merit of meshfree methods in the hyperbolic problems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
