In particular, the capability to provide a stochastic inference having accuracy levels comparable with those achievable by PD-pulse height and phase analyzers is inferred. This result is obtained varying typical set-up parameters for the two types of measuring systems, that is, dead time, gain and low-level discriminator. The behaviour of the two systems is compared resorting to the estimates of the scale and shape parameters of the Weibull distributions of pulse-charge height recorded from corona and surface discharges.","PeriodicalId":176239,"journal":{"name":"IEEE 1997 Annual Report Conference on Electrical Insulation and Dielectric Phenomena","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125506889","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}

Since epoxy resin is used for an insulation of high voltage apparatus and of electronic devices, we investigated the space charge behavior in it by the pulsed electroacoustic (PEA) method. When dc electric fields were applied to the craft resins treated by immersing them in water for 1 hr and 8 hrs at room temperature, positive and negative charges accumulated near the anode and cathode, respectively, and the charge distributions changed with the immersion time. In the case of the insulation-type epoxy resin, the charge distributions did not change after the treatment. At 100/spl deg/C, on the other hand, positive charges accumulated near the cathode and negative charges accumulated near the anode in a craft resin and in an insulation resin with filler. The internal space charge in the insulation-type epoxy resin without filler did not appear in any of the treatments.","PeriodicalId":176239,"journal":{"name":"IEEE 1997 Annual Report Conference on Electrical Insulation and Dielectric Phenomena","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130939135","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}

These additives are commonly used as pigments in polyolefin materials used as insulation in medium voltage cables. Thin film specimens were obtained by hot-compression, from materials compounded in these extruders. For the dielectric breakdown test, a DC voltage ramp rate of 500 V/sec. was applied to the samples which were immersed in a silicone oil bath at room temperature. The results were analyzed by the Weibull distribution. The Weibull shape and scale parameters were determined by Maximum Likelihood and Graphical Methods. The homogeneity of the pigments in the compounds was analyzed by optical microscopy. These results show that the breakdown strength depends on the mixing conditions. The best results were obtained in materials mixed in a twin screw extruder.","PeriodicalId":176239,"journal":{"name":"IEEE 1997 Annual Report Conference on Electrical Insulation and Dielectric Phenomena","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125123850","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}
