- ItemComparative studies of low-intensity short-length arcs(Praha : Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Department of Physics, 2019) Baeva, M.; Siewert, E.; Uhrlandt, D.We present results obtained by two non-equilibrium modelling approaches and experiments on low-intensity short-length arcs in argon at atmospheric pressure. The first one considers a quasi-neutral arc column combined with boundary conditions on the electrodes based on the energy balance in the space-charge sheaths. The second approach applies a unified description over the entire gap and solves the Poisson equation for the self-consistent electric field. The experiments provide the arc voltage.
- ItemAnalysis of C2 SWAN bands in ablation-dominated arcs in CO2 atmosphere(Praha : Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Department of Physics, 2019) Methling, R.; Franke, St.; Götte, N.; Wetzeler, S.; Uhrlandt, D.A model circuit breaker in a high-pressure chamber filled with CO2 atmosphere is used to operate a wall-stabilized arc of several kilo-amperes between tungsten-copper electrodes surrounded by polytetrafluoroethylene nozzles. Optical emission spectroscopy (OES) is carried out via quartz plates inserted into the nozzles using a combination of an imaging spectrometer either with a high-speed video camera or with an ICCD camera. Depending on the nozzle geometry and the current, continuum from C2 Swan bands was detected as absorption as well as emission pattern. After current zero, optical absorption spectroscopy (OAS) using a xenon flashlamp as broadband background radiator was applied. An absorption around 493 nm was detected and attributed to CuF molecules. The study proofs the existence of C2 in the active phase and the formation of CuF near to current zero.
- ItemAnalysis of erosion resistance of CuC arcing contacts manufactured by plasma spraying technology(Praha : Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Department of Physics, 2019) Derevyankin, P.; Frolov, V.; Gonzalez, D.; Gortschakow, S.; Methling, R.; Uhrlandt, D.Results of the erosion resistance study of the CuC electrodes manufactured by plasma spraying technology are presented. The diagnostics has have been performed by means of high-speed camera technique and optical emission spectroscopy which has been synchronised with electrical diagnostics. After the load material analyses, namely determination of mass loss and analysis of micro sections, have been done. It has been found that the erosion rate depends on conditions applied for the formation of coating layer, which was deposited either in air or in argon plasma. Furthermore, the erosion rate is significantly lower in the case of air plasma spraying.
- Item3D analysis of low-voltage gas-filled DC switch using simplified arc model(Praha : Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Department of Physics, 2019) Gortschakow, S.; Gonzalez, D.; Yu, S.; Werner, F.Electro-magnetic simulations have been used for the visualization of distribution of Lorentz force acting on a DC switching arc in low-voltage contactor. A simplified plasma model (black-box model) was applied for the description of arc conductivity. Arc geometry was gained from the high-speed camera images. Influence of arc position, arc current and of external magnetic field has been studied. Results have been compared with optical observations of the arc dynamics.
- ItemInfluence of resonance radiation transport on chemical equilibrium in an argon arc(Praha : Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Department of Physics, 2019) Gortschakow, S.; Kalanov, D.; Golubovskii, Yu.Deviations from chemical equilibrium in argon arc plasma are analysed by means of collisional-radiative model. Corresponding comprehensive kinetic scheme has been developed and applied form study of free-burning arc at the conditions typical for welding applications. While the natural lifetime have been used for radiation emitted from highly excited argon states, the resonance radiation was described taking into account the radiation transport effects. Resulting spatial distributions of excited argon atoms are compared for the cases of LTE and two-temperature plasma using different approaches for the description of the resonance radiation transport.
- ItemModelling and experimental investigations of DC electric arcs in argon and carbon dioxide(Praha : Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Department of Physics, 2019) Mohsni, C.; Baeva, M.; Franke, S.; Gortschakow, S.; Gonzalez, D.; Araoud, Z.; Charrada, K.In this work an arc model is employed along with electric and spectroscopic measurements to study DC electric arcs in Ar and CO2. The model is aimed at describing the arc and the electrodes. Simulation and experimental results are shown for currents between 150 A and 210 A.
- ItemOn the interaction of a microwave excited oxygen plasma with a jet of precursor material for deposition applications(Praha : Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Department of Physics, 2019) Methling, R.; Hempel, F.; Baeva, M.; Trautvetter, T.; Baierl, H.; Foest, R.A plasma source based on a microwave discharge at atmospheric pressure is used to produce an oxygen plasma torch. A liquid precursor material is evaporated and injected into the torch through a nozzle, causing oxidization and deposition of silica at a nearby quartz substrate. The temperature generated inside the plasma source and in the plume, in the region of treatment, and at the substrate surface are key parameters, which are needed for process description and optimization of plasma-chemical reactions. Optical emission spectroscopy and thermography were applied to observe and characterize the jet behavior and composition. The experimental results are compared with self-consistent modeling.
- ItemIK und KI-ein Herz und eine Seele: Ein Streit über künstliche Intelligenz im Kontext von Informationskompetenz(Frankfurt, Main : DGI ; Berlin ; New York, NY : de Gruyter, 2019) Burblies, Christine; Pianos, Tamara[no abstract available]
- ItemAlgebraic K-theory(Zürich : EMS Publ. House, 2019) Hesselholt, Lars; Huber-Klawitter, Annette; Kerz, MoritzAlgebraic $K$-theory has seen a fruitful development during the last three years. Part of this recent progress was driven by the use of $\infty$-categories and related techniques originally developed in algebraic topology. On the other hand we have seen continuing progress based on motivic homotopy theory which has been an important theme in relation to algebraic $K$-theory for twenty years.
- ItemAnalytic Number Theory(Zürich : EMS Publ. House, 2019) Matomäki, Kaisa; Vaughan, Robert C.; Wooley, Trevor D.Analytic number theory is a subject which is central to modern mathematics. There are many important unsolved problems which have stimulated a large amount of activity by many talented researchers. At least two of the Millennium Problems can be considered to be in this area. Moreover in recent years there has been very substantial progress on a number of these questions.
