Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of heat transfer processes of the high-current AC circuit breaker contact system. The creation of a mathematical model is based on the application of well-known physical laws such as the Joule-Lenz and Fourier laws, which describe physical processes in the form of partial differential equations. Cooper-Mikic-Yovanovich correlation is used for evaluation of thermal and electrical contact conductance. The developed mathematical model is verified by the results of experimental studies. The calculation of the composite material properties for numerical simulation of heat transfer processes is presented. The calculation is presented for the actual design and materials of the circuit breaker.
