Abstract
In this paper we calculated and compared the arc driving force of two spiral-tyre vacuum interrupter electrode models which have 3petals and 4petals respectively by means of commercial finite element method software Maxwell 3D. As a result we can find that the more petals the electrode has, the stronger arc driving force was generated. This simulation method can contribute to optimization of spiral-type electrode designs in a view of arc driving force.
