High Voltage and Electrical Insulation Engineering
The contents begin with the description of fundamental terminology commonly used in the area of high voltage engineering. This is followed by the classification of electric fields and the techniques of field estimation. Then the performance of gases, liquids, solids, and vacuum as dielectrics under different field conditions is described. Unique features of this resource include:
. Detailed descriptions of the three types of
electric fields on the basis of the Schwaiger
Factor.
. Introduction of the new concept of Weakly Non
uniform Field.
. Classification and explanation of three types of
Coronas: Star, Streamer, and Leader.
. A new approach to explaining the mechanism of
the lightning phenomenon.
. Separate, detailed chapters on electric fields,
lightning and ball lightning, and the insulating
properties of a vacuum.
. In depth coverage of the performance of sulfure
hexafluoride gas and its mixtures applicable to
the design of Gas Insulated Systems.
Graduate level students and teachers, as well as scientists and engineers involved in high voltage and insulation engineering and research and development, will appreciate this simple and systematic approach to the subject. Industry and utility personnel will rely on this resource to better understand the practical problems encountered with high voltage installations and equipment.
