A part of my thesis is to examine different fault events in MVDC architectures for shipboard power systems. A recent thought was to include a fault caused by a lightning strike in order to observe the behavior of my grid and circuit breaker. I found the circuit of the lightning impulse that has been introduced in the literature but I cannot find out how to simulate the sphere gap.
I am pretty much sure that you are done with your thesis work. I had a similar problem while building an impulse circuit on orCAD Pspice. I could not find the sphere gap, but there is a possibility of doing this with a TCLOSE switch on spice. You may rummage through the library of simulink and I am sure u could find something like this. You may find the screenshot of my LI circuit. All the best
