Description

Gas arc-extinguishing chamber
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of arc extinction of circuit breakers, in particular to a gas arc extinction chamber.
Background
SF6As an excellent insulating and arc extinguishing medium, it is widely used in high-voltage circuit breakers. The generator circuit breaker is used for starting and stopping various power plant units and protecting important equipment, and the units above 200MW generally adopt alternating-current SF6A generator circuit breaker.
The maximum short-circuit breaking current of the line circuit breaker used for the 35 kV-1000 kV alternating-current transmission network is generally 63kA, and the principle of an arc extinguishing chamber is mainly a compressed gas type and a self-energy expansion type. The air pressure of the expansion chamber is improved by utilizing the self energy of the electric arc during a large current period, namely the expansion chamber stores hot air diffused in the electric arc region, the air pressure of the expansion chamber is improved in the process, the air pressure of the electric arc region is reduced during a current zero passage period, and high-pressure air in the expansion chamber flows back to the electric arc region to cool and extinguish the electric arc. Therefore, the gas state in the gas chamber during the arcing, especially the average temperature, and the blowing form during the current zero-crossing have an extremely important role in fully exerting the cooling effect of the arc gap medium.
Due to the alternating current SF6The short-circuit breaking current of the generator breaker is as high as dozens to hundreds of kA, the thermal effect of the electric arc is extremely obvious, and in order to effectively utilize the self energy of the electric arc to break the fault current, the self-energy expansion arc extinguishing principle is generally adopted. Considering that the arc energy of the generator breaker is huge, even if the self-energy expansion principle is adopted, the air temperature of the expansion chamber is higher. Because the short-circuit current is large and the volume of the expansion chamber is also large, whether the cold and hot gas is mixed uniformly or not has large influence on cooling of an arc region in the later current zero-crossing period. During the current zero crossing, the high pressure gas stored in the expansion chamber during high current will flow back to the arc region to blow out the arc, so the blowing pattern, including velocity, will also have a greater effect on the cooling of the arc region. The cooling degree and the medium recovery strength of the arc regionI.e. the current breaking capacity is directly related (the lower the temperature and the higher the pressure, the stronger the capacity of the medium to withstand voltage without breaking down, for the same gaseous medium).
