This paper proposes an improved alternating current (AC) arc model based on the Cassie-Mayr hybrid model and magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) theory. The undetermined parameters of the traditional Cassie-Mayr arc model are mainly obtained by subjective methods such as empirical value, approximate expression, and indirect estimation which are complex, inaccurate, and dependent on experimental data. To overcome these disadvantages, an axisymmetric two-dimensional arc model is established based on the MHD theory, and the undetermined parameter values of the Cassie-Mayr hybrid arc model are obtained based on the results of MHD numerical simulation. The accuracy of the proposed modified Cassie-Mayr model is verified by comparing with experimental data, and the results of the modified Cassie-Mayr model, traditional Mayr model, and Cassie model are discussed. The arc characteristics of serval loads are studied and analyzed based on the modified model.
