Effect of h-BN and Fe3O4 nanoparticles on streamer propagation and dissipation in vegetable oil based nanofluids

Nanoparticles enhance the positive and negative lightning breakdown voltages of vegetable insulating oils due to a reduced streamer velocity. Pre-breakdown streamers in vegetable oil based h-BN and Fe3O4 nanofluids were observed using the shadowgraph method under a lightning impulse voltage. The pro...
