Modeling of CuCr contact vacuum arc with consideration of its components

This paper involves the simulation of vacuum arc under composite (CuCr) contact. A three dimensional model is developed and we have considered the ionization process as well as recombination in the vacuum arc. The species transport equations, in which the fraction of each component is calculated, pr...
