Properties of Mineral Insulating Oils in Service

The infrastructure of the electricity grid and super grid system in the hitherto industrialized world was to a large extent built up in the decades following World War II with a peak in investments around 1960-1980. This means that the flotilla of power transformers is now starting to reach projected lifetime of around 40 years. During the last couple of decades there has also been an ongoin...

Semi-insulating Liquids

Charge separation near a liquid/solid interface is explored by the electrohydrodynamic pumping of Freon TF, transformer oil, and silicone oil using high voltage traveling waves. Liquid head displacement measurements show strong dependencies on peak voltage amplitude (1.0-2.5 kV), frequency (0.1-20 Hz), liquid viscosity (0.5-20 cS), and liquid conductivity to 10-9 0-lm-l ). Reverse pumping, oppo...

ELECTRICALLY INSULATING COATINGS FOR V - Li SELF - COOLED BLANKET IN A FUSION SYSTEM

The blanket system is one of the most important components in a fusion reactor because it has a major impact on both the economics and safety of fusion energy. The primary functions of the blanket in a deuterium/tritium-fueled fusion reactor are to convert the fusion energy into sensible heat and to breed tritium for the fuel cycle. The liquid-metal blanket concept requires an electrically insu...
