  • Abstract
    Application of CFD for prediction of gas mixing in heating volume and heat transfer in exhaust parts for high voltage circuit breakers is presented. Simulation results and their comparison with measurements are shown and discussed. Based on the simulations, design of heating volume and heat transfer cooling mechanism is discussed.
