In this paper, experimental and theoretical studies were carried out on arc-induced bubble dynamic behaviors in insulation oil. Direct experimental evidence indicated that the arc-induced bubble experiences pulsating growth rather than a continuous expansion. Furthermore, a theoretical model and numerical calculation method were proposed, which revealed the dynamic mechanism of bubble growth. Good agreement between the theoretical results and experimental observations verified the general correctness and feasibility of the proposed method.
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.
