In this paper, flashover characteristics of insulator with N2 was tested. 50% flashover voltage under lightning impulse was measured. It is found that, with the increase of the gas pressure, flashover voltage increases approximately linearly. And polarity effect become stronger with the pressure rises. The flashover voltage first decreases and then rises with the increase of the surface roughness of the insulator. The experimental result indicated that adsorption and blocking actions of rough surface are the main factors for this phenomenon. And the effect of roughness on the flashover voltage under the positive lightning impulse is greater than it under the negative lightning impulse.","PeriodicalId":184139,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Electrical Insulation Conference (EIC)","volume":"273 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116550750","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}

For many years' mineral oil has been used for as an insulating liquid in high voltage transformer. Mineral oil has good dielectric properties, however, due to environmental problem; recently many researchers have been looking for an alternative insulating liquid. Biodegradable and environmentally friendly ester oils have attracted more attention in recent years. This paper presents the experimental results of electrical arc stress on dissolved gases of transformer insulating oils (PFAE, MIDEL 7131 and mineral oil). The generated dissolved gases in the sample oils were examined by dissolved gas analysis (DGA) techniques. The test device used for testing is acrylic tube with a high voltage copper electrode at the top and a ground aluminum electrode at the bottom immersed in the oil. The experimental results from dissolved gas analysis (DGA) indicated that arc fault produce large amounts of hydrogen (H2) and acetylene (C2H2) with small quantities of methane (CH4), ethylene (C2H4) and ethane (C2H6) for both oils. Acetylene (C2H2) gas is the highest combustible gas generated by arc discharge in both mineral and ester oils. Therefore, there is a possibility that the diagnosis of a transformer filled with ester oil can be done using dissolved gas analysis (DGA) method.","PeriodicalId":184139,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Electrical Insulation Conference (EIC)","volume":"114 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123954964","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 PD measuring systems in use work either in the low frequency regime (less than about 1 MHz) or in the very high frequency (30–300 MHz) range. By reference to several international standards, published work as well as some experiments described here, the advantages and disadvantages of the two approaches are reviewed. In most circumstances it is now clear that off-line PD tests should be done in the low frequency range.

{"title":"Short Term Trend Forecast of On-Line Monitoring Data of Dissolved Gas in Power Transformer","authors":"Peng Zhang, B. Qi, Qipeng Chen, Zhihai Rong, Chengrong Li","doi":"10.1109/EIC.2018.8481132","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/EIC.2018.8481132","url":null,"abstract":"As the transformation equipment of electrical energy, transformer is the key equipment in power system. When it comes to breakdown, there will be a great loss. Dissolved gas analysis (DGA) online testing is an important indicator of transformer health assessment which is widely used in insolation testing as it is sensitive to discharge defect. Nowadays, most of researches on DGA online testing analysis are aimed at the faults diagnosis. However, in some conditions, the fault may develop very rapidly. The operation and maintenance personnel don't have enough time to figure the problem out before the breakdown occur. This problem can be solved by forecasting the DGA on-line testing data effectively. With the reveal of deterioration trend, the serious failure will be avoided and the reliability of transformer will be improved. This paper proposes a short term trend forecast method based on online data optimization for dissolved gas in oil, which is a time series forecast. This method is made up of five parts: data optimization, related gases selection, the orders selection, model parameters estimation and model checking, multi-step forecast. With the field interference and DGA online testing device status error, the DGA online data's quality can't be assured. To improve the accuracy of forecast model, the transformer online testing data needs to be optimized in first step, including Pauta criterion removing for singular value and linear interpolation for missing data. The second step, select related gases, as different gases have strong relationship. The third step is to build forecaster model based on Auto-Regressive and Moving Average Model (ARMA), using Akaike information criterion (AIC) to select the model orders. The forth step, estimate the unknown parameters by least square method. After that, the model should be verified by residual error testing to make sure the effective information of the time series is fully extracted. The final step, use the forecast model to get the DGA forecast value by multi-step forecast. In this way, the short term deterioration trend can be reveal. About 323 normal transformers' one-year data and an overheat case's data are used to test the method, with research findings: 1) the forecast method has good short term forecasted accuracy, forecast error less than 10%. It reveals that the model can be used in the short-time dissolved gases forecast. However, if the value is too small as C2H4 or strong volatility as CO2, the ARMA forecast accuracy decreases sharply. 2) The longer time span, the larger forecast error will be, especially when it comes to the changes in condition. It's supposed that the model's response time influence the forecast error greatly. The further step is to reduce the method's response time.","PeriodicalId":184139,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Electrical Insulation Conference (EIC)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121990934","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 liquid insulation of the power/distribution transformer carries nearly 80% of the entire insulation weight, so the efficiency of the insulating oil is very much important for the effective transformer efficiency. The investigation is being carried out taking titanium nanoparticle (NP) into consideration. An optimized concentration of 0.01wt% titanium NP is dispersed with mineral oil (MO). Two step method is implemented to prepare the NF, followed by addition of hydrophobic surfactant “Cetrimonium bromide [(C16H33)N(CH3)3]Br” (CTAB) which used to hinder sedimentation. Thermo electrical properties are studied for both MO and titanium NF and compared. It is observed that the addition of 0.01weight% NP to MO causes a significant enhancement in the dielectric strength of the NF. The resistivity increases and the dielectric losses (Tan delta) decreases, respectively for the NF. The kinematic viscosity of the NF is nearly unaffected and the thermal conductivity enhances significantly. The reason for the enhancement of breakdown voltage and thermal conductivity are analyzed numerically and validated experimentally.","PeriodicalId":184139,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Electrical Insulation Conference (EIC)","volume":"106 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124634554","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}

Firstly, the online monitoring data of dissolved gas content which collected from multiple identical transformers are analyzed by nonparametric density estimation to obtain the health probability distribution function of various gases. Then, by mining the correlation between various gases and transformer fault conditions, an association rule method to calculate the weight coefficient of each gas is introduced. Finally, the weighted method is applied to calculate the health probability of transformer when the health probability and weight of each gas are obtained. The method introduced in this paper is validated by the state parameter data of transformer in a substation. The example shows that the health status of the transformer can be obtained in real time and this method is completely based on data driven, which is important to ensure the safety of grid.","PeriodicalId":184139,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Electrical Insulation Conference (EIC)","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114356861","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}

Murray","doi":"10.1109/eic.2018.8481054","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/eic.2018.8481054","url":null,"abstract":"Unsaturated polyester (UP) resins are used extensively in electrical impregnation applications. The major disadvantage of UP resins is that reactive diluents such as styrene, vinyl toluene and diallyphthalate must be used to maintain low viscosity for application. Approximately 30-75% of the reactive diluent is lost during the curing cycle as a volatile organic compound (VOC). The use of waterborne polyester resins is a competing technology. However even waterborne polyesters typically contain a co-solvent which contributes to VOC emissions. The presence of a co-solvent can also lead to low flashpoints and safety concerns. Epoxy resins on the other hand do not contain VOC's but are significantly more expensive than UP resins and are high viscosity for application on electrical devices. The current invention describes the utilization of UP Emulsion along with crosslinking agents for a high performance impregnation material. The emulsion particle size is less than one micron for long-term shelf life and has an application viscosity of only 300–600 cP at greater than 60% solids content. This UP emulsion product offers properties such as superior coating quality, high bond and dielectric strengths, and excellent corrosion / moisture resistance. The other advantages of emulsion products are that they are easy to use and cleanup, low VOC, no HAPS, no odor and low viscosity.","PeriodicalId":184139,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Electrical Insulation Conference (EIC)","volume":"108 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127957715","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 number of stator winding faults have been occurring on hydro generators in the last ten years as result of a turn-to-turn insulation failure. The insulation failure is complex in nature and is attributed to various design and operating factors, thus making the interpretation of the turn insulation condition extremely difficult. The purpose of this paper is to provide typical cases of failure and to share the experience in investigating these turn-to-turn faults, in order to increase knowledge about turn insulation failure. The requirements of insulation design and testing for new stator winding are specified, especially turn insulation. Surge protection to reduce the turn insulation degradation is also presented as the lesson learned from these cases.
