An electrical circuit breaker is a switching device which can be operated manually and automatically for controlling and protection of electrical power system respectively. As the modern power system deals with huge currents, the special attention should be given during designing of circuit breaker for safe interruption of arc produced during the operation of circuit breaker.
The modern power system deals with huge power network and huge numbers of associated electrical equipments. During short circuit fault or any other types of electrical fault these equipment as well as the power network suffer a high stress of fault current in them which may damage the equipment and networks permanently.
For saving these equipment and the power networks the fault current should be cleared from the system as quickly as possible. Again after the fault is cleared, the system must come to its normal working condition as soon as possible for supplying reliable quality power to the receiving ends. In addition to that for proper controlling of power system, different switching operations are required to be performed.
So for timely disconnecting and reconnecting different parts of power system network for protection and control, there must be some special type of switching devices which can be operated safely under huge current carrying condition. During interruption of huge current, there would be large arcing in between switching contacts, so care should be taken to quench these arcs in circuit breaker in safe manner. The circuit breaker is the special device which does all the required switching operations during current carrying condition.
It describes about the circuit breaker and components and types of high voltage circuit breaker. It also explains about the working principle of the circuit breaker.

CIRCUIT BREAKER
A circuit breaker is an automatically-operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by overload or short circuit. Its basic function is to detect a fault condition and, by interrupting continuity, to immediately discontinue electrical flow. Unlike a fuse, which operates once and then has to be replaced, a circuit breaker can be reset (either manually or automatically) to resume normal operation. Circuit breakers are made in varying sizes, from small devices that protect an individual household appliance up to large switchgear designed to protect high voltage circuits feeding an entire city.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

3. Introduction:
3
A circuit breaker is a mechanical switching
device, capable of making, carrying & breaking current
under normal circuit conditions. It is also capable of
making and carrying currents for a specified time and
breaking current under specified abnormal conditions,
Such as those of a short circuit.
5. OPERTING MECHANISM:
Circuit Breaker consists of two contacts:
Fixed Contact
Moving Contact
Moving contact is used to make and break the circuit using stored energies in the
form of spring and compressed air.
Spring, pneumatic or oil damping is used to arrest the spped of moving contact while
closing.
Fixed contact contains a spring which holds the moving contact after closing.
5
6. 6
Circuit Breaker consists of two coils:
Closing Coil : Used to close the circuit
Tripping Coil : Used to trip the circuit.
These coils activate the stored energy and directs the moving contact to open or
close.
DC batteries are used to energies these coils.
Solenoid are used to close or trip it.
Circuit Breakers are usually arranged with pilot devices to sense a fault current and
to operate the trip opening mechanism.
7. ELECTRIC ARC:
7
During the separation of contacts, due to large fault current and high current density at
the contact region the surrounding medium ionizes and thus a conducting medium is
formed is called “ARC”.
Factor Responsible for ARC:
Potential difference between the contacts
Ionized particle between the contacts.
8. PRINCIPLES OF ARC EXTINSION
8
Arc Quenching is achieved by:
Greater Dielectric strength than restriking voltage.
Faster rate of heat removal than rate of heat of generation.
Arc Extinction methods are:
By lengthening the gap.
Cooling the arc.
Inserting medium of high dielectric strength.
10. OIL CIRCUIT BREAKER:
10
It is designed for 11kV-765kV.
There are of two types:
BOCB - Break oil circuit breaker.
MOCB- Minimum oil circuit breaker.
The contacts are immersed in oil bath.
Oil provides cooling by hydrogen created by
arc.
It acts as a good dielectric medium and
quenches the arc.
11. OIL CIRCUIT BREAKER
11
Advantage:
I. Oil has good dielectric strength.
II. Low cost
III. Oil is easily available
IV. It has wide range of breaking capability.
Disadvantage:
I. Slower operation. Takes 20 cycles for arc
quenching.
II. It is highly infalamable, so high risk of fire.
III. High maintenance cost.
12. VACCUM CIRCUIT BREAKER:
12
It is designed for medium voltage
range(3.3kV-33kV).
It consists of vacuum of pressure
1*10−6 inside arc extension chamber.
The arc burns in metal vapour when
the contacts are disconnected.
At high voltage, Its rate of dielectric
recovery strength is very high.
Due to vacuum, arc extinction is very
fast.
The contacts loose metal gradually
due to formation of metal vapours.
13. VACCUM CIRCUIT BREAKER:
13
Advantage:
I. Free from arc and fire hazards.
II. Low cost for maintenance and simpler
mechanism.
III. Low arcing time and high contact life.
IV. Silent and less vibrational operation.
V. Due to vacuum contacts remain free from
corrosion.
VI. No byproducts formed.
Disadvantage:
I. High initial cost due to creation of vaccum.
II. Surface of contacts are depleted due to
metal vapours.
III. High cost and size required for high voltage
breakers.
14. AIR BLAST CIRCUIT BREAKER:
14
This operates high velocity blast of air which
quenches the arc.
It consists of blast valve, blast tube &
contacts.
Blast valve contains air at high pressure.
Blast tube carries air at high pressure and
opens the moving contact attached to spring.
There is no carbonization of surface as in
VCB
Air should be kept clean and dry to operate it
properly.
15. AIR BLAST CIRCUIT BREAKER:
15
Advantage:
I. High speed operation as compared to OCB.
II. Ability to withstand frequent switching.
III. Facility for high speed closure.
IV. Less maintenance as compared to OCB.
Disadvantage:
I. Little moisture content prolongs arcing time
II. Pressure should be checked frequently for
frequent operation.
III. Risk of fire hazards due to over voltage.
IV. It can not be used for high voltage
operation due to prolonged arc quenching.
16. SF6 CIRCUIT BREAKER:
16
It contains an arc extension chamber containing SF6 gas.
In closed position the contact remain surrounded by SF6 gas at a pressure of 2.8
Kg/cm2
.
During opening high pressure SF6 gas at 14Kg/cm2 from its reservoir flows towards
the chamber by valve mechanism.
SF6 rapidally absorbs the free electrons in the arc path to form immobile negative ions
to build up high dielectric strength.
It also cools the arc and extinguishes it.
After operation the valve is closed by the action of a set of springs.
Absorbent material are used to absorb the byproducts and moisture.
18. SF6 CIRCUIT BREAKER:
18
Advantage:
I. Very short arcing period due to to superior arc quenching property of
SF6.
II. Can interrupt much larger current as compared to the other breakers.
III. No risk of fire.
IV. Low maintenance, light foundation.
V. No overvoltage problem.
VI. There are no carbon deposits.
Disadvantage:
I. It is costly due to high cost of SF6 gas.
II. SF6 gas can be reconditioned after every operation of the breaker,
additional equipment is required for this purpose.
19. CONCLUSION:
19
Therefor we conclude that circuit breaker is the most essential
part of the electrical network as it protects every device from
damage. It help us to detect the fault and area affected by it.
Nowadays vacuum and SF6 circuit breakers are widely used
due to their reliable and fast operations.
