CDM in Sub-Stations by Replacement of SF6 Gas in Circuit Breaker
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper gives a case of large Sub-Station Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) Project to analyze CDM project’s influence on India’s Sustainable Development. SF6 gas is being extensively used in circuit breakers. SF6 gas has the highest Global warming potential which is 23900 times of Carbon Dioxide. Extensive Survey of SubStation using SF6 circuit breaker has been done in a sample state of India. Results indicate that there is high leakage of SF6 gas in atmosphere from Circuit Breaker. Quantification of leakage of SF6 gas has been done and CDM project for replacement of SF6 gas from the Sub-Station has been made for sustainable development. Baseline methodology has been proposed for SF6 gas replacement in Circuit Breaker. This paper may become a helpful tool for the policy makers and power system designers.

متن کاملCold-weather Application of Gas Mixture (sf6/n2, Sf6/cf4) Circuit Breakers: a Utility User’s Perspective
Very low temperatures stress a circuit breaker in a complex manner. Mixed-gas circuit breakers were developed for use at temperatures as low as -50C. These breakers utilize a gas mixture of SF6 and CF4 or SF6 and N2 to prevent condensation of the SF6 gas and have been type tested at -50C to ensure travel characteristics, operating times, and gas tightness are acceptably affected. Today’s mixed-...

متن کاملAn Optimized Algorithm for Sf6 Leakage Detection
Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) is an inert and non-toxic gas with excellent properties for arc quenching and electrical insulation applications. The main drawback is its high greenhouse potential. In high voltage apparatuses it is used in sealed volumes e.g. in the interrupting chamber of a circuit breaker. Even so, through flanges and o-rings we encounter always a small amount of gas leakage. Ther...
