摘要：This paper takes rectangular tinned silver flake as the research object to explore the working mechanism of melt metallurgical effect. Firstly, the paper designs and processes rectangular tinned silver flake through the electroplating technology, then conducts low-overload pre-arc experiment with the metallurgical samples. According to the experiment results, it is proposed that “Under low overload current, the formation of silver-tin alloy leads to the increase of current density of the metallic silver layer, which significantly advances the break time of the silver flake. At the same time, the silver-tin interpenetration speed is a linear function of the temperature.” Finally, the self-programming software is used to establish the transient electric heating field model of the metallurgical tinned silver flake. By comparing simulation and experiment, the results verify the accuracy of the hypothesis, and obtain the working mechanism of the melt metallurgical effect, which provides a reliable theoretical basis for the design and application of the metallurgical trigger.
