A Study on the Life Estimation and Cavity Surface Degradation Due to Partial Discharges in Spherical Cavities within Solid Polymeric Dielectrics Using a Simulation Based Approach

Partial Discharges (PD) in cavities are responsible for the greatest ageing rate in polymeric solid dielectrics due to chemical and physical deterioration mechanisms activated by the charge carriers, Ultra Violet (UV) radiation and local temperature rising during PDs activity. From the above, it is...
