A system for computer-aided theoretical and experimental analysis of impurity particle motion in dielectric liquids

Abstract

A model of impurity particle motion in a dielectric fluid under the action of an electric field, previously developed by some of the authors, is presented with the improvements suggested by both a larger amount of experimental data and the need of application to practical field configurations. A system for both computer-aided analysis of data obtained from high speed movie and electrical measurements about impurity particle motion and theoretical simulation of the phenomenon is presented, and some obtained results are displayed and discussed.
