Flashover Characteristics of Dry Band-water band on Hydrophobic Surfaces
Due to their outstanding anti-flashover characteristics, composite insulators have been extensively applied in power systems. A lot of research has investigated flashover characteristics of hydrophobic specimens with artificial water droplets.

Establishing a compartment fire's area of origin when it has been burning at post-flashover conditions is a difficult process. Burn patterns traditionally used by fire investigators following post-flashover fires can be erroneous.

Flashover Features in Aircraft Cargo Compartment at Low Pressure
The flashover mechanism in an aircraft cargo compartment under low pressure was investigated in this study. A series of fire experiments were conducted in a scale model of a one-quarter volume FAA standard aircraft cargo compartment at 96 kPa and 60 kPa.

An Underappreciated Radiation Hazard from High Voltage Electrodes in Vacuum
The use of high voltage (HV) electrodes in vacuum is commonplace in physics laboratories. In such systems, it has long been known that electron emission from an HV cathode can lead to bremsstrahlung X-rays; indeed, this is the basic principle behind the ...

Sessile water droplets on insulating surfaces subject to high AC stress effect of contact angle [PDF]
Surface pollution of outdoor high-voltage insulators is an important cause of flashover. We have undertaken an experimental study of electrical breakdown at the edges of a sessile water droplet on a planar, polymeric, insulating surface when subject to ...

Characteristics of EMI generated by negative metal-positive dielectric voltage stresses due to spacecraft charging [PDF]
Charging of spacecraft surfaces by the environmental plasma can result in differential potentials between metallic structure and adjacent dielectric surfaces in which the relative polarity of the voltage stress is either negative dielectric/positive ...
