Abstract

In this paper we describe streamer propagations characterizing underwater pre-breakdown and breakdown behaviour under impulse voltages. Streamer corona branches in lower resistivities are much thicker and brighter than those in higher resistivities. The negative streamer channels not only have more branches but also widely spread out than the positive streamer channels. The succession of streamer coronas during re-breakdown produces a stepwise propagation. The pre-breakdown currents consist of the conduction current and streamer corona current pulses.
