Analysis of Switching - Circuit Operations

Modeling Electrochemical Phenomena via Markov Chains and Processes gives an introduction to Markov Theory, then discusses applications to electrochemistry, including modeling electrode surface processes, electrolyzers, the repair of failed cells, analysis of switching-circuit operations, and other electrochemical systems...

To illustrate the implementation of remote-controlled systems within electrical distribution networks and their contribution to improvement in reli-abftity of electric energy supply to customers, we conducted an analysis of effects produced by the remote-controlled devices (Distribution substations within municipal underground system. Section switch-disconnectors and circuit-breakers in over-head hnes) to operation parameters of a selected section of the electrical distribution network in the Northern Moravia (Czech Republic).

Tests also show that the circuit of Fig. 6 can be operated as a bistable flip-flop. That is, pulsing an inductance switch shifts most of the current to the opposite branch, and the current thus shifted, remains there. This can be explained only if the flux associated with the small remaining current is trapped in the inductance switch hole. Analysis shows that each time the current is flipped, a smaller amount is shifted, until finally no shift is obtained, and the current is split evenly between the two branches. The entire process can be repeated by interrupting the loop current, pulsing both inductance switch controls, and then applying loop current again.
