Latest technical trend of arc plasma, electrical contacts, and their applications
Abstract
Abstract Arc plasma generated by arc discharges is used in various fields because of its extraordinary characteristics such as very high temperature and high energy density. On the other hand, the principle of current interruption by extinguishing the arc discharge between electrical contacts is practical and useful in many types of circuit breakers. Arc discharge and electrical contacts have been well investigated, and numerous procedures have been developed. In this review paper, we introduce the recent technical trends in arc plasma treating wastes, synthesizing new materials, and the latest circuit breakers equipped with arc plasma and electrical contact techniques.
