I will be really gratefull if anyone could help me to simulate a " HVDC Vacuum circuit breaker " using a commutation circuit consist of a capacitance and an energy absorber "ZnO " resistance .
Or anyone have any idea for simulating the DC vacuum arc using matlab simulink !
thanks

A Vacuum Circuit Breaker is a type of circuit breaker where the arc quenching takes place in vacuum. This can be simulated with the Circuit Breaker (with arc) in Simscape Electrical. For a lower fidelity check the Circuit Breaker block.
