3D modeling of the heating of a metal sheet by a moving arc: application to aircraft lightning protection
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 September 2000
Abstract
Within the framework of the study of the aircraft structural material lightning, we present a work concerning the heating of metal sheets under the action of a moving electric arc. A 2D and 3D modeling of thermal phenomena occurring in the heated electrodes are used in order to study the influence of the arc root velocity and of the power and the surface power density brought by the arc roots on the electrode heating.
