Pressure Rise and Propagation Phenomena Due to Fault Arc in Container with Opened Pipe

Abstract: SUMMARYThis paper describes experimental and analytic studies on pressure rise and propagation phenomena due to high current arcs in a container with opened pipes. The shape of the experimental container was chosen taking into account underground common ducts. First, arcs were ignited in the container with varying diameter D and length L of the opened pipes and at arc currents of 4 kA to 12.5 kA and an arc duration of 0.1 s. Based on measured waveforms, the maximum pressure rise P and the pressure oscillation … Show more

“…Zhang et al [4,5] combined hydroand thermodynamic equations to evaluate the pressure rise due to fault arc in an electrical installation, in which the fault arc is simplified as a heat source. Experimental work on fault arcs has also been reported recently [6][7][8]. Pettinga et al [9] studied experimentally the relationship between arc temperature and pressure of fault arc in an MV switchgear filled with air or SF 6 .…”
