The electron swarm parameters such as effective ionization coefficient, -↑α and drift velocity over the E/N range from 280～700 Td（1Td=10^-21 V·m^2） were calculated by employing a set of cross sections available in literature. From the variation cure of -↑α with SF6 partial pressure p, the limiting field （E/N）lim of gas mixture at different gas content was determined. It is found that the limiting field of c-C4F8 and SF6 gas mixture is higher than that of pure SF6 at any SF6 mixture ratio. Simulation results show excellent agreement with experiment data available in previous literature.展开更多
