Switching arc plasma diagnostics by usage of two high-speed cameras
Buchta, Martin ; Dostál, Lukáš (referee) ; Valenta, Jiří (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with an electrical arc formation and its properties. The thesis also describes some of the electrical devices and principles, which are used for arc extinction. It is mainly focused on design, construction and testing of model of the LV quenching system, which allows high speed cameras to record arc movement. Recorded images are then used to create three-dimensional reconstruction of the electric arc with help of created program 3DMaker. The final reconstruction is the output of this work.

Welding of steel C45
Hála, Kamil ; Sigmund, Marian (referee) ; Kubíček, Jaroslav (advisor)
The aim of this bachelor‘s thesis is to propose a suitable welding parameters for a small part of steel C45. This steel contains a high percentage of carbon and therefore is difficult to weld. Gas shielded arc welding techniques were considered to be used, and from such techniques, the TIG method seems to be the most advantageous one. For this technique were suggested three groups of parameters and the most suitable one was chosen to be used for the production. The option chosen is of a welding power I=40 A and with preheating 200 °C. The component is made in the single-part production in SAAB Czech s.r.o.

Plasma speaker - audio modulated electric arc
Klein, Ondřej ; Červinka, Dalibor (referee) ; Martiš, Jan (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with design and realization of electric arc modulated by audio signal. It is also known as plasma speaker. Absence of any mechanical components gives membranless speaker no frequency limitation. The design consist of single circuits as power sources for power and control section, control electronics, which modulates the signal, and power section, which reproduce signal in form of sound.

Derating on the low voltage devices with a thermal trip unit
Dobrovolný, Jakub ; Vetiška, Vojtěch (referee) ; Dostál, Lukáš (advisor)
Electrical devices are secured as not to injure living creatures via electric current and damage or destroy machinery due to the effects of electric current. Circuit breaker is a device responsible for protection of an electrical circuit against damage. The main aim of thesis is the correct function of the thermal trip unit when it exposes to the thermal warming. The thermal trip unit is depended on heating of a bimetal before overcurrent flow. The goal of thesis is temperature and voltage drop profile from measured values. Verification of the measurement is done in SolidWorks Flow Simulation software. According to simulations are determined currents for correct function of the thermal trip unit in different temperatures of an environment. The most important result of the thesis is correct setting of the operating current in the circuit breaker.

Evaluation of a switching device behaviour during short-circuit current
Fendrych, Martin ; Dostál, Lukáš (referee) ; Valenta, Jiří (advisor)
At work, I focused on the principle of electric arc extinction in low voltage devices. I particularly focused on the issue of magnetic switches. Next, I processed by the theory site issue of contact system in magnetic switches. In the practical part of my work, I was testing modular low voltage circuit breaker type of 2B and 10B. Testing was carried out in the laboratory of switchgear. I observed the movement of the contact and electric arc, which was burned between them and conductor wall. Observation was recorded by using a high-speed camera and an oscilloscope. Of acquired waveforms, I evaluated the dynamics of contacts, electric arc length and the value of the arc voltage for different moments.

Usage of high-speed camera in the area of switching arc
Samohejl, Matěj ; Bušov, Bohuslav (referee) ; Valenta, Jiří (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis is focused on optimizing recording of electrical switching arc in magnetic switches by high-speed camera. Measurements were performed on the circuit breaker 10B without removed side case, which was subsequently cowled by neutral density filter. The voltage and current of the circuit breaker contacts were acquired by measuring system of the Laboratory of switching arc diagnostics. The energy source was motor-generator with a nominal power 16 MVA and test bench consisting of a capacitors and inductors, which have been tuned to the resonance frequency of 50 Hz. Evaluation of the measurements was taken with regard to the brightness distribution levels of the record. Results showed that the mean brightness value varies on the square of the current passing through. For proper localization of the arc, it is necessary to appropriately set the camera exposure. The main problem usually is to darken the scene enough. It was found that it is necessary to take into account that brightness level change depends nonlinear on the exposure offset. The thesis gives a proposal to determine the exposure shift of the record. The possibility of usage high-speed camera to determine the temperature distribution in the arc using the brightness equiintensities was also designed. There are mentioned suggestions how to improve recording of the arc in circuit breakers, especially in the arrangement of the optical parts.

Electric arc in the switchgear
Kutal, Ondřej ; Dohnal, Petr (referee) ; Bušov, Bohuslav (advisor)
This thesis focuses on description of creation, properties and behavior of an electric arc in the switchgear. In addition, it focuses on description how an electric arc can be created and how it effects contacts in electrical switchgear. Electric arcs is divided into arc with DC or AC. Quenching of the electric arc supplied by DC is more difficult than in case of AC since the DC does not pass through zero value. For the design of quenching chamber it is important to know the characteristics of the electric arc under both conditions. The behavior of static V-A characteristic of the electric arc supplied by DC was determined with experimental measurements using the equation by Ayrton. Subsequently, measurement of the dynamic characteristics of the electric arc with AC were determined. And the limits values for the emergence of electric arc were measured of. Last, the results wereevaluated and expansion of measurement task was proposed. The numerous influences on the arc were described. In conclusion the thesis extends diagnostic of the arc under the laboratory conditions.
