In addition, current and light signals were monitored by non-inductive current shunt and photo multiplier tube (PMT) respectively.

The Normal and Weibull distribution functions are used to analyze and estimate the BDV probability of these oils. The hypothesis testing is then used to select the distribution functions suitability. We mainly analyze the histogram, frequency, mean, standard deviation and estimate the BDV probability of the sample population. The considered liquids are three different mineral oils (MO3', MO4' and MO5), one synthetic ester (SE1) and three different natural esters (VO2, VO3 and VO4). All oil samples were new and treated. It's shown that the measured BDV data follow better Normal than Weibull distribution. Basing on the BDV at the levels of risk 1% and 50% probability for U1% and U50%, the dielectric strength of ester oils, under AC, homogeneous field and small gap, is slightly better compared to mineral oils.","PeriodicalId":364451,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Conference on Dielectric Liquids","volume":"118 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134042373","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}

Fine metal oxide powders and nanopowders of Al2O3, TiO2, CuO, Cu2O and Fe2O3 were tested at concentrations up to 5% w/v in the liquid matrix. Emulsification was attained by ultrasound treatment. The relative dielectric constant and loss tangent (tand) of both pure oil and emulsions were recorded in the 20 Hz–1 MHz frequency range. Results depend both on grain size and on the specific compound. In the case of alumina nanoparticles, dielectric behavior is dominated by grain surface polarization phenomena induced by adsorbed water. This effect can be partially cancelled out by the addition of titania nanoparticles. Titanium and (to a lesser extent) ferric oxide increased the dielectric constant at middle and high frequencies. Copper (I) and (II) oxides exhibit a distinct relaxation mechanism at the high end of the frequency range.","PeriodicalId":364451,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Conference on Dielectric Liquids","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128261731","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}

Microscopic views have shown that pressboard insulation is a fibrous and porous structure with a non-homogeneous surface. The porosity of pressboard can result in impurities within the oil being drawn into the oil-impregnated pressboard. The material properties and geometry of pressboard thus lead to a complex oil-pressboard interface. A 2-D model of oil-pressboard interface considering the porous and non-homogeneous of pressboard has been constructed using Finite Element Analysis software, COMSOL Multiphysics. This paper discusses the mathematical equations used to study the electric double layer (EDL) at the oil-pressboard interface where the oil is in a stationary condition.
