The failure and erosion of relay contacts mainly depend on the presence of particles deposited on the contact surface in various contaminated atmospheres. In this paper, the effects of sea water and circuit parameters on the arcing and quenching of magnet relay contacts are studied. The sea water pollutants of relay contact surface have led to increase the arcing numbers on making contact, and the mean arc durations on breaking contacts. Moreover, the maximum surge voltage and mean arc duration between relay contacts are also varied significantly by the circuit parameters. The effects of the spark quenching circuits using condenser of diode on the arcing of contacts are also discussed.

The feasibility for a practical use of underwater wet arc welding process is experimentally investigated by using low hydrogen and high oxide type electrodes and TMCP steel plates. Main results are summarized as follows: 1)The absorption speed of the coated low hydrogen and high titanium oxide type eletrodes becomes constant after about 30 minutes in water, and more steeping time in water does not influnce welding arc behavior. 2) By bead appearance and X-ray inspection, the high titanium oxide type electrode is better than the low hydrogen type in underwater arc welding process. 3) The mechanical properties of underwater wet arc welds depend upon welding conditions more than those of in-air welds, and the optimum welding condition can be obtained. 4) Because of quenching effect by rapid cooling rate in underwater wet welding, the maximum hardness of HAZ is increased relatively higher in underwater wet welding, process.

Ultrafine Si3N4 and Si3N4+SiC mixed powders were synthesized through thermal plasma chemical vapor deposition(CVD) using a hybrid plasma, which was characterized by the supersposition of a radio-frequency plasma and arc jet. The reactant SiCl4 was injected into an arc jet and completely decomposed in a hybrid plasma, and the second reactant CH4 and/or NH3 mixed with H2 were injected into the tail flame through double stage ring slits. In the case of ultrafine Si3N4 powder synthesis, reaction efficiency increased significantly by double stage injection compared to single stage one, although crystallizing behaviors depended upon injection speed of reactive quenching gas (NH3+N2) and injection method. For the preparation of Si2N4+SiC mixed powders, N/C composition ratio could be controlled by regulating the injection speed of NH3 and/or CH4 reactant and H2 quenching gas mixtures as well as by adjusting the reaction space.

Arc phenomena occur in the air, must be more diverse than vacuum and SF6. An air arc interruption method has been used in low rated voltage circuit breakers such as ACB, MCCB and MCB. Most of them have the arc chamber composed of arc chutes and lateral walls that made of many kinds of materials. Therefore, the criterion of material selection is necessary for breaking capacity improvement. So, we selected some contact and lateral wall materials, and carried out short circuit tests. Especially, some parameters of arc plasma properties were very different each polymeric wall material.

Underwater wet arc welds were experimentally performed on 11mm thick SS400 mild steel plate as base metal by using six different types of flux coated electrodes of 4.0mm diameter; KSKR, KSKT, USBL, JPUW, UWEA, and UWEB. As results, the developed flux coated underwater electrode had a good weldability compared with other domestic terrestrial electrodes. By rapid cooling rate, the hardness value of HAZ were increased by quenching effects. Mechanical properties for the multi-pass butt-welding specimen are also tested experimentally. The feasibility of the developed underwater electrode was experimentally studied and the results achieved in this wet arc welds have shown that the developed wet welding electrode UWEB can have a degree of integrity.

본 논문은 가정에서 사용하는 중 저압용 차단기의 차단 능력을 향상시키기 위한 방법에 초점을 두었다. MCCB의 차단 능력은 MCCB내부 부품들의 재료나 형상 그리고 배열 등 여러 요소에의해 결정된다. 특히 본 논문에서는 MCCB 그리드의 형상을 변화하여 소호시간을 단축하는 방법을 제안하였다. 사고에 의해 차단기가 작동하게 되면 차단기 내부 접점에서 Arc가 발생하게 된다. 이때 발생된 Arc에의한 2차 사고를 방지하기위해, Arc를 빠른 시간에 소호시켜야한다. Arc가 발생하게 되면 Arc내부는 도체처럼 전류가 흐르게 되는데 이 전류에 의해 소호부의 그리드를 따라 자속이 형성된다. 그리드의 형상에 따라 Arc 기둥 주변에 불균형적인 자속이 유도되고 이 불균형한 자속에 의해 Arc 주변에는 불균형한 로렌츠힘이 발생하여 일정 방향으로 힘이 작용하게 된다. 이때 발생한 로렌츠힘 에의해 Arc 기둥은 그리드 방향으로 소호된다. 분석을 위해 유한요소법을 이용한 시뮬레이션을 사용하였고 그리드 형상 변화를 통해 일정방향으로 로렌츠힘이 변화 전보다 증가한 결과를 얻었다. 본 논문의 내용에 추가로 그리드 내부에서 자속의 이동을 효율적으로 전달하기위한 방법을 연구하면 더 큰 로렌츠힘을 얻어 소호시간을 단축시킬 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The offshore industry created a need for quality wet weld repairs. Wet welding is a fast method of repair providing sound, structural quality welds. It requires less support equipment than a similar underwater dry weld repair or the alternative mechanical connections. Compared to welds made in air, underwater wet welds are plagued by increased hardness due to rapid quenching by the surrounding water. In this paper is described the experimntal study of improving the cooling rates of wet welds of TMCP steel plate by shielding around weld arc surroundings. The principal results of this experimental investigation can be summarized as follows : By shielding around weld arc surrounding, the cooling rates resulting from wet welds on TMCP steel plate could be lower than that of nonshielded wet welds and the fesibility on high quality of mecanical properties of wet weld on TMCP steel plate was carried out with shielded weld arc surrounding.

Recently $SF_6$ gas circuit breakers utilizing the thermal-expansion principle are increasingly used in distribution power system. Active researches and developments have been conducted to reduce the size and weight, and to improve the interrupting performance of the circuit breakers. It was first developed a programme which could show the hot gas flowing into the thermal-expansion arc chamber. This programme, using so-called FLIC method basically, adopted 'Simplified Enthalpy Arc Model' which was somewhat modified to estimate the arc quenching process. The computation by it was compared with the measured results of the pressure rise in the chamber, and both showed fairly good agreement.

It is necessary to install the arc generation facility in order to obtain the important technology for the design of breakers and switches, and for the improvement of their performance and reliability. With this facility, it is possible, to study the characteristics of Arc in air/gas/vacuum insulation environment. The facility briefly consists of capacitor bank which can charge enormous energy, an air-core reactor, experimental arc-chamber, and several measurement equipments. This facility can simulates the arc phenomena in breakers and switches by means of generating high currents. In order to study the arc phenomena in SF6 gas and vacuum and to test the quenching performance of the extinguishing chambers which are developing. we made experimental $SF_6$gas/vacuum chambers and measured several parameter's of chambers. And besides we visualized arc ignition and arc movement by means of high speed camera.
