  • Abstract
    Representing the arc as an imposed nonsteady (electric) heat source located within a moving air stream, solutions to a simplified form of the energy equation have been found which relate spatial and temporal dependence of the are temperature to fluid velocity, arc dimensions, and fluid properties. Discussion and comparisons, of a qualitative nature, between the results of the analysis and a-c circuit breakers are presented.
