The arc quenching phenomenon in an SF/sub 6/-N/sub 2/ mixture was analyzed by using the simulation program developed by the authors. The gas flow from the cylinder to the arc was investigated as a function of SF/sub 6/-N/sub 2/ mixing ratio in relation to the configuration of the arc chamber. The pressure rise in the cylinder was measured to confirm the result of the simulation by varying the SF/sub 6/-N/sub 2/ mixing ratio. The result of the simulation suggests that the desirable configuration of arc chamber should be changed depending upon the mixing ratio of SF/sub 6/-N/sub 2/ mixture.
