Electromagnetic analysis of circuit breaker tripping unit
Mlynář, Zdeněk ; Augusta, Zbyněk (referee) ; Valenta, Jiří (advisor)
Using circuit breakers as devices for protecting the circuit, equipment, property, and not least the people is an important part of the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity. This puts high demands on the design of complex devices such as circuit breakers. To ensure proper function is one of many parts and that is the trip unit. Trip unit is used to evaluate the current flowing through the breaker and respond to undesirable overcurrent. For these reasons, this work deals with electromagnetic analysis - specifically thermal magnetic trip unit. The focus will be on improving the actual situation and finding more suitable design solutions.

Calculation of electrodynamic forces acting on current path of a switching device
Benčo, Tomáš ; Bušov, Bohuslav (referee) ; Valenta, Jiří (advisor)
The master thesis is focused on the calculation of electrodynamic forces acting on the contacts of the moulded case circuit breaker Siemens 3VA5 from OEZ Letohrad. This work is divided into ten chapters. In the introductory chapter it is described why it is important to deal with the calculation of the electrodynamic forces and the design of the current path. The second chapter describes the problem of the origin and effect of electrodynamic forces on individual parts of the electrical device. The third chapter describes the parameters, properties and design of the 3VA5 Siemens circuit breaker. The fourth chapter describes the Finite Element Methods. The fifth chapter describes how to create a 3D current path model in Solidworks. The sixth to ninth chapter is focused on the stationary calculation of moments in the program Ansys Maxwell by means of Magnetostatic Analysis and on the calculation of the total repulsive force between contacts with the influence of ferromagnetic materials. The last chapter is focused on dynamic calculation of moments and forces acting on contacts in a certain time interval.

Enhancement of optical diagnostics of the switching arc
Samohejl, Matěj ; Kloc, Petr (referee) ; Valenta, Jiří (advisor)
This master´s thesis si focused on determinig methodology of optical diagnostics of the switching arc using the high-speed camera Photron SA-X2. The thesis contains basic rules for proper setup of the measurement system and the rules to adjust the camera exposure. The experiments were performed on the prototype of a parametric switching chambre, while the majority of source materials was derived from the requirements of another study which was aimed on the movement of the electode spots. The process of the first adjustment of the camera, a record edit options for the presentation purposes and the process of the 3D model design of the switching arc in SketchUp software was stated. Paper contains a comparsion of the spectral filter effect and neutral density filter effect on the final record as well. The part of the work outputs are the 3D model of the switching arc and the supporting record editing software. The paper results show a degree of the inaccuracies in a optical diagnostics made from only one direction caused by the lack of the information about third dimension.

Evaluation of pressure conditions in the quenching chamber of low-voltage device
Nevrzal, Filip ; Vávra, Daniel (referee) ; Valenta, Jiří (advisor)
In this master’s thesis there is firstly conducted research about pressure measurement. Next there is mathematical description of thermodynamic conditions in used testing chamber by using magnetohydrodynamic and Maxwell equations. Next chapter deals with testing chamber itself, more precisely with function, model and changes done to it. In practical part there are data measured by used sensors, which are also closer described in this chapter. In next chapter there is comparison of reaction times of used sensors and their frequency specters, obtaining using fast Fourier transformation. Second to last chapter introduces very measurement on the real device and in the last chapter these data are analyzed and more closely described.

Design of HV disconnector
Hrubý, Radek ; Valenta, Jiří (referee) ; Vávra, Zdeněk (advisor)
The text focuses on the design of high-voltage disconnector. It made a brief theoretical analysis of construction equipment directives. Proposal follows the insulation system apparatus according to empirical formulas. Hereafter, we discuss the design of current track isolators. For the flow path are calculated electrodynamic forces acting. Warming current path is simulated by a computer program ANSYS, this simulation includes 3D device model and determine the material and thermal constants. Finally it is shown calculating the required torque on the shaft of the disconnector. This calculation is simplified. The output is a 3D sketch of the device model used to simulate warming.

Simulation of temperature-rise in MV switchgear assemblies
Kapalla, Alexej ; Bušov, Bohuslav (referee) ; Valenta, Jiří (advisor)
This thesis focuses on the issue of heating of medium-voltage switchgears. The paper contains descriptions of the individual devices which the switchgear consists of. Furthermore, the paper examine the theoretical relations which describe the heating of the conductor. It also present the normative regulations regarding the heading of MV switchgears as well as specific impacts which influence the final temperature-rise. This is followed by chapters that describe the refining of a 3D model of specific switchgear for purposes of simulating temperature-rise, further followed by chapters that look at the actual simulation environment. The thesis further focuses on the actual simulation of MV switchgear temperature-rise and it will compare the results of the simulation with measurements taken under real conditions. The thesis also includes results of simulated temperature-rise while taking into consideration the forced cooling of the switchgear. In the last part, it focuses on the creation of an excel file, which enables the prediction of final results for the temperature-rise of disconnector based on its contact resistance.
