Abstract:The use of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) as an electrical insulator and arc‐quenching gas in high‐voltage equipment raises serious environmental concerns. The search of a replacement gas for SF6 is hindered by a priori assessment on its interruption performance. The routine fluid or mathematic magneto‐hydrodynamic models for arc burning and extinguishing are too complex to be practical for virtual screening. Herein a state‐of‐the‐art quantum chemical model to predict the interruption capability of the dielectric g… Show more
