Water Saturation Limits and Moisture Equilibrium Curves of Alternative Insulation Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method developed for establishing moisture equilibrium curves for any combination of liquid and solid insulation is presented in this paper. Moisture saturation curves for natural and synthetic esters have been presented in the temperature range up to 140°C together with curve for mineral oil as a reference. Sorption isotherms have been established for cellulose based and aramid fiber based materials. Eventually, the moisture equilibrium diagrams have been created for given combinations of solids and liquids.

he presence of moisture in a transformer deteriorates transformer insulation by decreasing both the electrical and mechanical strength. In general, the mechanical life of the insulation is reduced by half for each doubling in water content [l]; the rate of thermal deterioration of the paper is proportional to its water content [2]. Electrical discharges can occur in a high voltage region due to...
متن کاملApplication of Seed Equilibrium Moisture Curves in Agro Physics
The water relations play a fundamental role in seed comprehension of biology. In order to describe the process of drying and the effect on water activity, which controls biological change in storage, a sound knowledge of the relationship between equilibrium moisture content (EMC) and water activity/equilibrium relative humidity (ERH) is essential. The relationship between the total moisture con...
