Increased surface flashover voltage in microfabricated devices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
With the demand for improved performance in microfabricated devices, the necessity to apply greater electric fields and voltages becomes evident. When operating in vacuum, the voltage is typically limited by surface flashover forming along the surface of

Conductivity Analysis and Thermoelectric Behaviour of Larch Standing Trees Under Lightning Currents: Role of Moisture Distribution and Carrier Motion

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The direct effects of lightning strikes on forest combustibles form the foundation for predicting lightning‐induced forest fires. Accurate assessment of lightning impact is hindered by limited knowledge of the conduction characteristics of standing larch trees.

Study on Raindrop Dynamic Behaviour and Its Impact on Insulator Flashover Characteristics Under Airflow Synergy

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The synergistic effect of airflow on rainfall behaviour significantly impacts the flashover probability of insulators. This study combines experiments and simulations to investigate the influence of raindrop dynamic behaviour, shed structures and rainfall conditions on flashover characteristics under airflow conditions.

Event-Based Evaluation of Short-Term Wettability Degradation of RTV Nanocomposite-Coated 150 kV Ceramic Insulators Under Tropical Flashover Stress

open access: yesCorrosion and Materials Degradation
Flashover events can induce rapid surface condition changes on outdoor ceramic insulators, while early-stage degradation is typically assessed indirectly through long-term ageing or electrical diagnostics.
