The social network perspective focuses emergent patterns of interpersonal interaction and the resulting ties of interpersonal trust. READ MORE

  2. 2. Partial Discharges at Repetitive Rapidly Changing Voltages

    Author : Elisabeth Lindell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; high dV dt; oil paper insulation.; repetitive voltages; short rise time; partial discharge measuring techniques; twisted pair; square-like voltages; corona; Partial discharges PDs ;

    Abstract : Electrical insulation can today be exposed to voltages having considerably higherfrequency components than the conventional power frequency AC 50 Hz or 60 Hz,for example due to the increased use of power electronics in power systems. Thishas in a number of cases caused unexpected behaviour, including failures. READ MORE

  3. 3. Measurement and Analysis of Partial Discharges at Semi-Square Voltages

    Author : Elisabeth Lindell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; space charge; Partial discharges PDs ; short rise time; partial discharge measuring techniques; square-like voltages; repetitive voltages; corona;

    Abstract : Insulation is today being exposed to voltages having considerably higher frequency components than the conventional power frequency AC 50 Hz or 60 Hz, for example in motors supplied by adjustable speed drives based on pulse width modulated converters. This has in many cases caused unexpected behaviour of the insulation systems. READ MORE
