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.

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.
