Fuzzy Logic Based Efficient Blending of Mineral and Vegetable Oil as Alternate Liquid Insulation

Abstract

In the present decade, biodegradability is the most preferable and viable alternative solution for all kind of applications, which is also true for high voltage applications. In recent upgrades, researchers can suggest using natural oils for environmental concerns. This paper deals with the idea of blending petroleum based mineral oil (PBMO) and comestible corn oil (CCO) for high voltage liquid insulation. Conventional insulating oil has a high breakdown voltage, low viscosity and pour point, and a high flash and fire point. The main goal of the work is to navigate the blend oil ratio concentration to enhance the performance and improve the dielectric properties of insulating oil. As per standards, in order to verify the suitability of the fundamental oil test, it is taken and analyzed in all proportions. When compared to conventional oil, a blend oil ratio has exhibits the desired performance. Furthermore, the result of the fuzzy logic approach (FLA) is determined to improve the compactness of the research.
