Abstract

At the micro level, the contact between the two surfaces is the mutual contact and extrusion of between innumerable tiny convex points. And the contact of these convex point in the electrical connection will cause the current to tighten, thus producing contraction resistance. In this paper, a simple and intuitive spherical conductor contact model was established by ANSYS Workbench software to conduct electro-thermal coupling and statics analysis of contact models and explore the relationship between current intensity, contact area temperature, and contact pressure at the micro level.
