The paper presents a model to analyze the convection-stabilized local thermodynamic equilibrium electric are occuring in the are-quenching chamber of puffer-type circuit breaker during short-current interrupting course, which is described with the axial-symmetric Euler's equations and coupled with one-dimensional electric field. Employing the modified fluid in cell (FLIC) method, the gas flow has been calculated during both loading and non-loading interruption in a 550KV two-break puffer-type circuit breaker. Pit the same time, the phenomenon of thermal block and back flow caused by are have been simulated for the sake of the analysis of effects of the are on gas flow. Furthermore, the paper has also calculated the effects of nozzle structure on gas flow, which makes it possible to optimize the design of the breaker.
