In the present work, tracking and erosion resistance of the micro size filled and nano size filled silicone rubber material has been studied under the AC voltage, with ammonium chloride as a contaminant, as per IEC 60587 test procedures. The characteristic changes in the tracking resistance of the micro size and nano size filled specimens are analyzed through leakage current measurement. Comparative Tracking Index (CTI) is also evaluated in order to understand the relative behavior of solid electrical insulating material with regard to their susceptibility to surface tracking. Trend followed by the fundamental, third harmonic and fifth harmonic components of the leakage current during the tracking study are analyzed using moving average current technique. It is observed that the harmonic components of leakage current show good correlation with the tracking and erosion resistance of the material. It is noticed that 5 % wt ofnano size filler gives similar performance to that of 30 % wt of micro size filler in silicone composites.展开更多

To make effective use of the natural resources, the shell powder was applied as a filler of outdoor thermal insulation coatings. Sodium stearate(SS) was used to modify the properties of shell powder to reduce its agglomeration and to increase its compatibility with the emulsion. The oil absorption rate and the spectrum reflectance of the shell powder show that the optimized content of SS as a modifier is 1.5wt%. The total spectrum reflectance of the coating made with the shell powder that is modified at this optimum SS content is 9.33% higher than that without any modification. At the optimum SS content of 1.5wt%, the thermal insulation of the coatings is improved by 1.0℃ for the cement mortar board and 1.6℃ for the steel plate, respectively. The scouring resistance of the coating with the 1.5wt% SS-modified shell powder is three times that of the coating without modification.展开更多

Theaging tests were performed on a section of 10 kV transmission XLPE cable by means of water needlemethod, and _R was measured by DC voltage superimposed method, R and i_(de) were found to besignificantly dependent on the correspondingaging degree of insulation in the course of aging ofXLPE, and different kind of aging stage has different characteristics. Beside, there are generallysimilar regularity but different amplitude in the course of aging of XLPE insulation in differentelectrolyte, and the various electrochemical tree were found on the surface of aging XLPE cableimmersed in CuSO_4, solution. Therefore, according to the changing regularity of the DCcharacteristic parameters i. e.

The resistance is found to decrease slowly and then quickly and to have kinks with the increase of the substrate-collector bias, which is quite different from that of a conventional bulk HBT. The model is consistent with the simulation result and the reported data and is useful to the frequency characteristic design of 0.13 μtm millimeter-wave SiGe SOI BiCMOS devices.展开更多

Insulation resistance after this test between phases or between phase and frame has not been lover as 5 × 10^6 Ohm. Some producers of motors use this method for determining quality of impregation resin. On such test insulation resistance between phases was lover as between phase and frame. Because between phases is only wire insulation impregnating resins on insulation resistance of insulation system an impregnating resin we observe influence of type of wires and after humidity test.
