English abstract:
The behaviour of a low voltage contactor is analyzed with nonlinear
transient finite element analyses. For a simulation as close as possible
to normal operational conditions, a voltage driven model is concerned
additionally to a current excited model. A strong circuit coupling takes
into account for the eddy currents in the copper shading rings. Thereby,
different arrangements of the shading rings are analyzed in detail. A
comparison of the steady state current characteristics obtained from the
numerical calculations and from measurements shows a very good agreement.
