تاثیر سرعت کنتاکت بر فرسودگی الکتریکی
قطع موفق جریان تناوبی به این مسئله بستگی دارد که آیا قابلیت استحکام دی الکتریک شکاف بیشتر از ولتاژ ورودی به شکاف توسط مدار برای تعیین مجدد جریان می باشد یا خیر. محاسبه استحکام دی الکتریک بسیار سخت و پیچیده می باش. و به فاکتورهای زیادی مثل خصوصیات دی الکتریک، فاصله بین کنتاکت ها، ضرایب غیر یکنواخت میدان الکتریکی، زبری سطح الکترودها، و چگالی مولکول گاز بستگی دارد.

A Novel Smart High-Voltage Circuit Breaker for Smart Grid Applications Jun Liu, Student Member, IEEE, Garng M. Huang, Senior Member, IEEE, Zhiying Ma, Senior Member, IEEE, and Yingsan Geng, Senior Member, IEEE Abstract—In this paper, we propose a new “intelligent operation” concept for high-voltage SF gas circuit breakers, in which the moving contacts are self-adaptively controlled from one position to an adjacent position to improve the circuit breaker life cycles. To analyze the concept intelligent operation, a new model of high-voltage SF gas circuit breaker is developed, and the moving characteristics of the new type circuit breaker are computed based on the newly designed model. Then both mechanical and electrical wears are quantitatively analyzed according to the breaker’s new moving characteristic. Finally, we demonstrate the life cycle improvement of the new type of high-voltage SF gas circuit breaker. Our analysis can also be used to estimate the remaining life cycle of a breaker based on the tallied data collected by our intelligent modules. Index Terms—Electrical wear, high-voltage SF gas circuit breaker, intelligent operation, mechanical wear, phase control technology, reliability. I. INTRODUCTION CIRCUIT breakers have been playing a critical electrical apparatus role to control and protect power equipments including power transmission lines for high-voltage power systems during faults. It has become even more essential for smart grid applications even during normal operations: the smart grid needs to break or make rated current more frequently besides the function of fault protection. For examples, optimal transmission switching is able to cut the generation costs greatly based on optimal power flow analysis [1]. It is also shown that branch and bus coupler switching [2] is a powerful control option to find optimum robust network topologies. In addition, [3] shows that network reconfiguration can alleviate or remove the potential overload of a monitored line. In addition to transmission switching, researches on the important role of interruptible loads [4], [5] in deregulated electricity markets to ensure both power system security and optimum electricity prices also have been Manuscript received January 12, 2010; revised June 09, 2010, September 30, 2010, December 08, 2010; accepted January 29, 2011.

Digital Object Identifier 10.1109/TSG.2011.2134113 demonstrated; hence, circuit breakers will be required to perform more normal operations (i.e., load shedding) under rated current in the distribution network of future smart grid. To meet the demands for these smart grid applications, it is pertinent to develop new technology to lengthen life cycles (the number of operations) of high-voltage breakers for transmission systems for more reliable operations. Ever since SF gas was discovered in the 1900s, the development of high-voltage circuit breakers has made considerable progress. Nowadays, SF gas circuit breakers (GCBs) have become the mainstream of the high-voltage market, and have been widely used in all applications involving power system voltages in the range of 72.5 kV to 800 kV [6]. Although SF has greenhouse effect, it is exclusively used as an insulation and quenching medium for high-voltage circuit breakers because of its high insulation strength and high interruption capability of fault current at present; while alternative medium, such as vacuum, limits its use only to voltages up to 100 kV [7]. Our objective here is to enhance breaker reliability by lengthening its lifetime in such a way that the breaker will need less maintenance and serve longer time in power systems. The implication is that less SF need to be produced and used for GCBs, which will induce considerable environmental benefits. Historically, the development of high-voltage SF GCB has experienced three periods, namely, the two-pressure [8] stage, the puffer type stage, and the hybrid type circuit breaker stage. A hybrid type GCB has the mixed structure of self-blast thermal expansion type and puffer type GCB. A novel GCB named intelligent circuit breaker is proposed in this paper. Conventionally, circuit breaker is considered unintelligent on its own. Former researches of circuit breakers focused mainly on monitoring the SF gas parameters [9], the control circuit status [10] of GCB, etc. Traditional GCB receives an open-or-close signal from relays, and then operates simply according to its factory setting, which cannot be modified or adjusted for different situations. To increase life cycles, we propose to develop intelligent controls on the operating mechanism to improve the basic interrupting characteristic of GCBs to meet the demands of smart grid applications for GCBs’ critical role for frequent rated current operations. The proposed intelligent operation of high-voltage gas circuit breakers take advantage of the advancement of digital circuits and flexible hydraulic valve regulators to lengthen the operation life cycles of breakers with relatively low extra cost. Our data and analysis confirm the effectiveness of our approach: the life cycles of both faulted and normal operations can be increased substantially since our intelligent control unit will reduce both electrical and mechanical wears substantially. Our analysis can also be used to predict the remaining lifetime of 1949-3053/$26.00 © 2011 IEEE
