The accumulation of space charge is a major concern in HVDC transmission systems. Although a considerable number of models have been proposed to calculate space charge in thin film and cable samples, there are still many questions that need to be answered, such as effect of defects on conduction and space charge accumulation. In the present paper a simulation model is presented for the calculation...
A Pulsed Electro-Acoustic (PEA) apparatus has been developed to measure the space charge distribution inside cable insulation. The technique relies on acoustic contact between the cylindrical cable surface and a flat aluminium plate to couple the acoustic waves to the sensor. This work addresses the practical issue of the clamping force required to maintain good contact and how this may alter the...
The aim of the current work is to achieve a better understanding of the influence of water uptake in flexible epoxy resins on the space charge dynamics at high electric fields. The space charge behaviour was studied using pulsed electroacoustic (PEA) technique. The samples were prepared from Araldite CY1311, which is a bisphenol-A epoxy resin. This particular resin was chosen because its glass transition...
It has been proposed that the measurement of the characteristics of electroluminescence (EL) observed during the application of ac and dc electric fields across thin films of polymeric material can be used to probe the early stages of electrical ageing. Both EL and electrical ageing of the polymer are thought to arise due to the injection of charge carriers into the material from the metallic electrodes...
Recently a number of papers have reported enhanced electrical (ageing and breakdown) performance of nano-composites when compared to the properties of the base resin material. The physical reasons for this improvement are the subject of many current studies and have yet to be fully formulated. In this work, the build-up and decay of space charge in epoxy resin materials, containing nano-particles...
