Hybrid Computational Model of High-Current Vacuum Arcs With External Axial Magnetic Field

This paper deals with the computer modeling of a high-current (total current ≥10 kA) vacuum arc with an external axial magnetic field. This arc is typical for certain kind of vacuum interrupters. The described hybrid model treats electrons as a massless fluid and ions as macroparticles. The macropar...

description This paper deals with the computer modeling of a high-current (total current ≥10 kA) vacuum arc with an external axial magnetic field. This arc is typical for certain kind of vacuum interrupters. The described hybrid model treats electrons as a massless fluid and ions as macroparticles. The macroparticle dynamics are calculated with the use of the particle-in-cell method. Ion-ion Coulomb collision is considered with the use of the Monte Carlo method. The model can simulate high-current vacuum arcs as a whole including separate cathode plasma jets, mixing zone, and common plasma column. The hybrid model is able to calculate V-shape volt-tesla characteristics, which correlate well with experimental results.
