Abstract

In this paper, a three-dimensional algorithm for the insulation design of the high-voltage equipment is presented. In general, the insulation design consists of two steps. They are electric field calculation and correction of the shape to be designed. In the proposed algorithm, the combination method of charge simulation and surface charge simulation is used to calculate the three-dimensional electric fields. As for the correction of the shape, indirect control provided by rational B-spline is more useful than direct control. The use of rational B-spline reduces in the number of design variables and garrantees the smooth curvature of the designed shape. The proposed algorithm is applied to the design of the shape of the shield ring which has been designed by the method of trial and error.
