Abstract
This paper presents an electrical arc model based on physical parameters of the arc including temperature, enthalpy, pressure, and also arc geometry. In this model, different mass flows and power losses are considered. The different powers including radiative and turbulent power as well as power gain and loss carried by axial and radial mass flows are calculated and simulated as a function of physical parameters. Moreover, the different arc diameter expressions and their influence on power losses are examined by arc experiments with high-speed imaging and arc dynamic behavior analysis. This model can provide the dynamic behavior of the arc easier in contrast to more complex physical models. The comparison with conventional arc models, such as Schwamaker, Habedank, Kema, and Schwarz, illustrates that the new arc model can better reproduce electrical measurements.
