Fractal Dimension of dieletric breakdown

open access: yes, 1984
It is shown that the simplest nontrivial stochastic model for dielectric breakdown naturally leads to fractal structures for the discharge pattern.

Pressure-Dependent Breakdown Voltage in SF6/Epoxy Resin Insulation Systems: Electric Field Enhancement Mechanisms and Interfacial Synergy

open access: yesEnergies
In SF6 gas-insulated equipment, solid dielectrics critically degrade insulation performance by reducing the electric field’s ability to withstand gas gaps.

Influence of Oxygen on the Multiple-Current-Pulse Behavior in an Atmospheric Homogeneous Helium Dielectric Barrier Discharge With Air Impurities

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
In this paper, through a one-dimensional fluid model, we investigate the influence of oxygen on the multiple-current-pulse (MCP) behavior in an atmospheric homogeneous dielectric barrier discharge (HDBD) in helium with air impurities. From the simulation

Controlling the number of discharge current pulses in an atmospheric dielectric barrier discharge by voltage waveform tailoring

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2021
Atmospheric dielectric barrier discharges driven by tailored voltage waveforms are investigated numerically with a one-dimensional fluid model. We use the multi-frequency pulse-type voltage waveform as the control method and the harmonics N as the ...

On the optimization of healing conditions for multifunctional recovery in natural rubber/polycaprolactone and natural rubber/polyethylene oxide thermoplastic elastomers

open access: yesPolymer Testing
Electrical insulation faces severe mechanical, electrical, thermal, and environmental stresses, where defects distort the local field and initiate partial discharges and compromise dielectric integrity, requiring costly repair or replacement.

Experimental and numerical study on atmospheric‐pressure air dielectric barrier discharge via 50 Hz/5000 Hz dual‐frequency excitation

open access: yesHigh Voltage
A dual‐frequency (DF) dielectric barrier discharge, excited by the superposition of a 50 Hz low frequency (LF) and a 5000 Hz intermediate frequency (IF), is proposed to enhance discharge.

Characterization of Partial Discharges in Dielectric Oils Using High-Resolution CMOS Image Sensor and Convolutional Neural Networks

open access: yesSensors
In this work, an exhaustive analysis of the partial discharges that originate in the bubbles present in dielectric mineral oils is carried out. To achieve this, a low-cost, high-resolution CMOS image sensor is used.

Growing discharge trees with self-consistent charge transport: the collective dynamics of streamers

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2014
We introduce the generic structure of a growth model for branched discharge trees that consistently combines a finite channel conductivity with the physical law of charge conservation.

First ground-based observations of sprites over southern Africa

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2018
Sprites are the optical signatures of electrical discharges in the mesosphere triggered by large lightning strikes associated with thunderstorms. Since their discovery in the late 1980s, sprites have been observed extensively around the world, although ...
