Mechanisms for surface potential decay on fluorinated epoxy in high voltage DC applications [PDF]
Epoxy resin has been extensively used for decades as an insulation material in high voltage transmission systems. However, this insulation material does suffer from bulk and surface charging when used as insulating spacer, mainly in high voltage DC ...

ABSTRACT Periodic lattice material (PLM) is an innovative material system capable of rapidly and efficiently constructing functionally graded materials (FGMs). Among various PLM structures, triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS) exhibit numerous advantages, making TPMS‐based lattice materials a potential candidate to electrical FGMs.

Micro Partial Discharge Characteristics of SF6 Under DC Voltage
ABSTRACT In gas‐insulated high‐voltage direct current (HVDC) devices, micro partial discharges (PD) caused by micro‐protrusions or surface roughness on conductors or enclosures may not cause immediate insulation system failure due to their weak discharge intensity.

Development of ± 550 kV DC GIS Basin Insulator
ABSTRACT The basin insulator is a core component of the insulation system for ± 550 kV gas‐insulated switchgear (GIS). This paper, using a finite element method for multi‐physics simulations of electric–thermal coupling, determines a geometry suitable for the industrial production of ± 550 kV GIS basin insulators.

Anisotropy in Dry‐Type Valve‐Side Bushings of Converter Transformer: Phenomena and Effects
ABSTRACT The safe and stable working of dry‐type valve‐side bushings, important components of converter transformers, is essential. In recent years, poor design has led to several core breakdown, flashover and cracking failures. The bushing cores, composed of crepe paper and aluminium foil, exhibit significant anisotropic physical properties due to its

Study of Positive Corona Discharge of Needle Plate Electrodes in Airflow
ABSTRACT For high‐speed moving objects such as aircraft and wind turbine blades, discharge occurs under strong airflow. Research on lightning attachment characteristics has been extensive, whereas the role of corona discharge in pre‐breakdown streamer development has received less attention.

Rare Lightning and Convection Characteristics During Two Successive Tornadoes in Southern China
ABSTRACT Systematic investigations into lightning characteristics of tornado storms in China remain scarce. This study comprehensively analyses rare lightning behaviour and overshooting top characteristics for two successive tornadoes during a long‐lived supercell in southern China on 27 April 2024.

ABSTRACT The problem of gas–solid interface charge accumulation is an important reason for distorting the surface electric field and then inducing surface discharge. The temperature gradient distribution formed on the spacer during the operation of a gas‐insulated transmission line (GIL) will aggravate the surface charge accumulation, further ...

Mineral Oil‐Induced Ageing Characteristics of Aluminium Nitride‐Doped Silicone Rubber Nanocomposites
ABSTRACT Room temperature vulcanised (RTV) silicone rubber, commonly used as an external insulating coating on ceramic bushings of oil‐immersed transformers, undergoes significant degradation when exposed to mineral oil under harsh environmental conditions.

Review of Catenary Icing on High‐Speed Railways: Characteristics, Impact and Countermeasures
ABSTRACT The pantograph–catenary system (PCS) is the only path for electrified railway trains to acquire energy. Catenary icing during winter is a common natural phenomenon, which usually leads to the deterioration of the current quality and severely affects the operational safety of trains.
