Abstract: CO₂-based gas mixtures exhibit huge potential as the interruption medium for replacing SF₆ in high voltage switchgears. In this paper, the recovery characteristics of dielectric strength of CO₂-O₂ mixture in the post arc phase after the current zero are presented. As representative examples, the dielectric recovery curves under conditions of different gas filling pressures and short-circuit current amplitudes are presented. A series of dielectric recovery measurements suggests that the dielectric recovery rate is proportional to the mass flux of the blowing gas, and the dielectric strength recovers faster in the case of lower short circuit currents.
Abstract: Mobile social games recently become extremely
popular, spawning a whole new entertainment culture. However,
mobile game players are fickle, quickly and easily picking up and
abandoning games. This pilot study seeks to identify factors that
influence users to discontinuing playing mobile social games. We
identified three sacrifices which can prompt users to abandon games:
monetary sacrifice, time sacrifice and privacy sacrifice. The results
showed that monetary sacrifice has a greater impact than the other two
factors in causing players to discontinue usage intention.
