A type of water-based cold rolling fluid has been developed by adding TiO2 nanoparticles. The tribological behavior of nanoTiO2 water-based rolling fluid was investigated by using four-ball machine. The worn surfaces of the steel balls were analyzed by using OLYMPUS laser confocal microscopy. Results indicate that nanoTiO2 nanoparticles significantly improved the anti-wear properties in the way of micro-ball bearing and perfecting the tribological behavior of water-based rolling fluid. The cold rolling experiment shows that the nanoTiO2 water-based rolling fluid had a good rolling lubricant performance under the condition of concentration of 0.7wt.% for the upper limit. The nanoTiO2 water-based rolling fluid can not only decrease the minimum rolling gauge and the surface roughness of the work piece, but also prevent direct contact between roller and work piece which could lead to the rolled surface scratches and adhesion defects.
Partial discharge (PD) detection and analysis plays a crucial role for acceptance testing and condition monitoring of power cables. Various aspects are related to PD in power cables from theory to practice. This paper first summarizes the PD mechanism and models used for PD analysis in power cables. Afterwards, PD detection is addressed in the aspects of off-line test, on-line test, and sensors. PD analysis is discussed in detail. Specifically, related quantities and algorithms for PD analysis are outlined. PD characteristics with affecting factors, e.g., dielectric type, load, and applied voltage are discussed. Experience on PD development trend with measurements in field is analyzed. Based on the comprehensive review, challenges of PD detection and analysis along a power cable are proposed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
