The ultra-high-frequency (UHF) method is used to analyze the insulation condition of electric equipment by detecting the UHF electromagnetic (EM) waves excited by partial discharge (PD). As part of the UHF detection system, the UHF sensor determines the detection system performance in signal extraction and recognition. In this paper, a UHF antenna sensor with the fractal structure for PD detect...

The electric field distortion caused by the high voltage current environment in cable terminal will greatly increase failure probability and reduce operation safety; therefore, it is necessary to ensure uniform distribution of terminal. This paper briefly introduced high-voltage non-linear materials. traditional silicone rubber added with nano-SiO 2 were prepared. electrical conductivity two ru...

The overall life of oil-immersed power transformers depends on the long-term life of the oil–paper insulation system throughout continuous operation. Studying the reliability assessment methods for oil–paper insulation can help determine the reliability level of power transformers accurately, and ensure their safe and stable operation. In the present paper, the life of oil–paper insulation is p...

This study compared the methods of determining the footwear insulation on human participants and the thermal foot model. Another purpose was to find the minimal number of measurement points on the human foot that is needed for insulation calculation. Bare foot was tested at 3 ambient temperatures on 6 participants. Three types of footwear were tested on 2 participants. The mean insulation for a...

Nonlinear composite dielectrics can function as smart materials for stress control and field grading in all fields of electrical insulations. The percolation process is a significant issue of composite dielectrics. However, the classic percolation theory mainly deals with traditional composites in which the electrical parameters of both insulation matrix and conducting fillers are independent o...

A contactless power transfer system for charging electric vehicles requires a high efficiency, a large air gap, and a good tolerance to lateral misalignment and needs to be compact and lightweight. A double-sided winding 10 kW transformer based on a 1.5 kW H-shaped core transformer was developed for a rapid charger. Even though the transformer capacity was increased, the dimensions of the 10 kW...

500kV substation is especially important to the grid of our country, once it encounters lightning damage, the safety and reliability of the whole power system will be directly affected. As lightning intruding waves will cause overvoltage on electric equipments by intruding from the transmission line or straightly stroking the substation, which seriously influences the insulation level of equipm...

In this paper, the trajectories of free conducting particles of various sizes inside a three phase common enclosure Gas Insulated Busduct(GIB) are simulated by solving the nonlinear second order differential equation of particle motion iteratively by using RK 4 Order Method. Compressed Gas Insulated Substations(GIS) consists of a conductor supported by spacers inside of Sulphur hexafluoride gas...

Partial discharges are ionization processes inside or on the surface of dielectrics that can unveil insulation problems in electrical equipment. The charge accumulated is released under certain environmental and voltage conditions attacking the insulation both physically and chemically. The final consequence of a continuous occurrence of these events is the breakdown of the dielectric. The elec...

We computationally estimate the electric strength (ES) and the boiling point (TB) of 2611 carbonyl compounds. Namely we systematically analyze the groups of hydrofluoro-ketones, -aldehydes and acyl fluorides as well as perfluoro-ketones and – aldehydes. The elemental composition is restricted to solely hydrogen, fluorine, a single oxygen atom and 3 to 5 carbon atoms. Our method is based on the ...
