Abstract:The synergic effects of bubble formation and partial discharge activity in oil-paper insulation are investigated. By controlled lab experiments and Finite Element Computation, the bubble emission rate under various level of partial discharge is studied. The intensification of electric field due to the presence of bubble in oil-paper insulation is calculated. Finally, the partial discharge activity caused by bubbles is tested. The results show that, contrary to our traditional negligence of small partial discha… Show more
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.
