The electrode systems used allow the investigation of single-source PDs and/or multiple-source discharges. Because voltage and the electrode configuration alter the PHD functions of even a single PD source, the overall effect of voltage an multiple-source discharges is rather complicated. The results indicate that the PHD functions of the multiple-source discharges are the superposition of the distribution functions of the discharges and the component sources acting alone. Knowledge of the PHD functions of the typical PD sources together with some kind of deconvolution technique could help in interpreting the results of PD measurements performed on more complex, real insulation systems and, perhaps, identify the main sources of PD in those systems. >","PeriodicalId":13105,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Electrical Insulation","volume":"1 1","pages":"932-940"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90664257","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first is concerned with common minimum distance classification, using statistical data on pulse quantities such as apparent charge, energy and phase. Applying the correct algorithms and features, such a system is able to discriminate between unknown defects using conventional discharge patterns. Classification with neural networks, which offers the possibility of classifying the shape of the PD pulses without using statistical tools for data reduction, is also discussed. Examples of diagnostic decisions are shown for a gas-insulated-switchgear system with several artificially introduced defects. The reliability of the diagnosis is estimated for both time-resolved detection evaluated by neural networks and classic phase-resolved PD evaluation. A two-step strategy of time-resolved preclassification and automated phase-resolved evaluation is introduced. >","PeriodicalId":13105,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Electrical Insulation","volume":"30 1","pages":"1016-1024"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87608890","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A system that can be used to measure directly a set of both conditional and unconditional pulse amplitude and phase distributions needed to reveal memory effects and quantify the phase-resolved stochastic properties of partial-discharge pulses, is briefly described. It is argued that not only is an unraveling of memory effects essential in any attempt to understand the physical basis for the observed stochastic behavior of partial-discharge phenomena, but also that the data on conditional distributions provide additional statistical information that may be needed to optimize the reliability of partial-discharge pattern recognition schemes now being considered for use in insulation testing. >","PeriodicalId":13105,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Electrical Insulation","volume":"30 1","pages":"905-916"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89426416","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study of the interaction of such low energy (0 to 15 eV) electrons near the surface of dielectrics in experiments combining cryogenic thin film deposition and high-resolution low-energy electron-beam techniques is discussed. Examples of the results obtained with thin film atomic and molecular solids are used to illustrate the basic mechanisms which control the electron-dielectric interactions and provide a description of the basic degradation processes involved during electronic aging. It is shown that elastic and quasi-elastic scattering of hot electrons in dielectrics can be described in terms of band structure parameters, whereas inelastic scattering is often governed by the formation of transient anions. These anions can decay by stabilization, by producing vibrationally and electronically excited molecules, or by dissociating into a stable anion and a neutral radical. These latter species usually initiate other reactions with nearby molecules, causing further chemical damage. >","PeriodicalId":13105,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Electrical Insulation","volume":"22 1","pages":"789-819"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88667975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
