Effect of Impulse Voltage on Partial Discharge of Oil and Paper - Oil Insulators Containing Air Cavity

Abstract

In power systems, usually by lightning strikes or switching operation, impulse voltage is produced. This paper reviews the effect of high impulse voltage on the PD parameters. In recent years, numerous studies on PD in the insulation, under the impulse has been done. Despite the use of power equipment and tools, switching impulse is created in the system. So, studies on PD activity with the initiation and end voltage PD in insulators have been investigated. However, the combination of PD characteristics with AC and impulse has not been studied in many studies so far. Unlike previous studies, in this paper, along with the impulse voltage, the AC voltage effects are also considered. On the other hand, dielectric characteristics show the quality of insulation in terms of the soundness or deterioration of equipment over time. The deterioration and aging of equipment can be due to electrical stresses such as alternating current PDs or transient stresses or due to environmental pressures and temperature or mechanical pressures. At this point, the effect of the PD alternating current (AC) on paper combination insulation oil dielectric frequency response equipment is investigated. In this review, a brief history of the performance of insulation against partial electrical discharge is addressed, and the finite element method software (Maxwell) is used to simulate partial electrical discharge for objects that are particularly sharp.
