热应力与电-热复合应力下油纸绝缘老化特性的比较研究(英文)

During the operation of power transformer,its oil-paper insulation is continuously subjected to various stresses,c.g.,the thermal,electrical,mechanical,and chemical stresses,which cause insulation aging gradually.It has been considered that the combined thermal and electrical stresses are the most important and unavoidable factors that induce insulation materials aging.In this work,accelerated aging experiments of oil-impregnated pressboards under combined thermal(130℃) and electrical stresses(4 kV/mm) are performed,while the aging experiments under single thermal stress are also carried out at the corresponding temperature(130℃).The electrical and physic-chemical properties of oil,including dielectric losses factor tanδ,resistivity,acid value and pH value etc.,are measured during the aging process.Dissolved gasses in oil and polymerization degree of cellulose are also measured.The relationship between these properties of oil-paper insulation and aging time is investigated.The results show that dissolved gases in oil,resistivity,tanδof oil under combined thermal and electrical stresses are obviously different from that tinder thermal stress during aging process while some other properties show similar changing trend.For cellulose, compared with the single thermal aging results,it even shows a slower degradation rate in the presence of electrical stress.

绝缘纸板老化对局部放电脉冲参数的影响(英文)

Combination of pressboard and mineral oil continues to be the choice of materials used as the insulation dielectric media in large transformers.The purpose of the reported study is to investigate the influence of pressboard aging on PD(partial discharge) pulse parameters.Ultra wide band(UWB) time-resolved PD pulse measurements were carried out on gas void inside pressboard.The rise rime,full time and width time of PD pulse in different aging degree pressboard are obtained.The result is helpful to better understanding the influence of the aging of pressboard on PD measurement and insulation diagnostics in power transformers.

Comparative Evaluation of the Thermal Aging of Solid Insulation in Mineral Oil and Methyl Ester of Palm Kernel Oil

The purpose of this work is to determine the impact of thermal aging on the dielectric and physicochemical properties of the oil/paper mixed insulation. We performed a comparative analysis of dielectric paper dipped in two cooling fluids: palm kernel oil methyl ester (MEPKO) and mineral oil (MO). Two types of dielectric paper were used: Thermally Upgraded Kraft paper (TUK) and Nomex-910 paper (NP-910). An accelerated aging test was realized at 110°C during a total of 96 hours. Samples of oil and paper were collected after 0, 48, 72 and 96 hours for analyses purposes. The analyses performed included the measurement of the Breakdown voltage (BDV) of the dielectric papers, the Total Acid Number (TAN) and the Decay Dissolved Products (DDP) of the liquid dielectrics. The BDV of NP-910 is greater than the BDV of TUK. Concerning the type of oil, the BDV of dielectric papers impregnated with MEPKO is greater than the BDV of similar papers impregnated with MO, indicating a better preservation of paper when dipped in methyl esters. The analyses of TAN and DDP revealed that Nomex-910 improves the oxidation stability of MO, but reduces the oxidation stability of MEPKO. These results prove that methyl esters can be used as a substitute to replace mineral oils in power transformers. Furthermore, they show that NP can be used mainly in areas of transformer where solid insulation is subjected to high thermal and electrical stress, and TUK other places where solid insulation is required. Such combination could assure money savings and a better preservation of the oil viscosity.

Charge Transport in Oil Impregnated Paper Insulation Under Temperature Gradient Using Transient Upstream FEM

Charge transport in oil impregnated paper impacts the insulation performance of a transformer.This paper proposes a simulation method for the charge transport in oil impregnated paper insulation.The transient upstream finite element method(FEM)is applied to the transport equations of bipolar charges for establishing a numerical simulation model of charge transport in oil impregnated paper insulation.The method is validated by experimental results.The charge transport and electric field distribution in single-layer oil impregnated paper insulation under different temperature gradients is simulated.The trends of the simulation results are seen to agree with the corresponding experimental results.This paper conducts exploratory research into the simulation of charge transportation phenomenon in oil impregnated paper,and is of importance to the design of oil impregnated paper insulation.

Influence of Oil Paper Composition on the Space Charge Characteristics

Space charge inside oil paper insulation can severely distort the electric field distribution and lead to degradation of electrical performance of materials.A vast number of articles about the space charge characteristics of oil paper insulation under different conditions has been published;however,few report the influence of oil paper composition.In this paper,a comparison of the space charge distribution as well as the electrical conductivity of four combinations of transformer oil(Kunlun#25 and Nynas oil)and paper(type I from XD factory,type II imported from France)is carried out.The results show that the combination of type II paper and Kunlun oil performs well with minimal charge accumulation inside the materials.To understand the phenomenon,results of space charge measurements and electrical conductivity are associated.A microscopic inspection of two types of paper is conducted to acquire the surface condition of the paper.The relationship between space charge injection quantity and surface condition of the papers is discussed.It is observed that a relatively higher conductivity of oil as well as a smooth,dense surface of paper can suppress space charge in oil paper insulation.
