In this paper, the interfacial dielectric breakdown phenomenon of interface between Epoxy/EPDM (ethylene propylene diene terpolymer) was discussed, which affects stability of insulation system of power delivery devices. Specimen structure was designed by using MAGSOFT's FLUX2D based on the finite elements method. Design concepts is to reduce the effect of charge transport from electrode in the process of breakdown and to have the tangential electrical potential with the Epoxy/EPDM interface. AC interfacial breakdown phenomenon of was investigated by variation of interfacial conditions oil and temperature which are supposed to have influence on the interfacial breakdown strength. Interfacial breakdown strength was improved by spreading oil over interfacial surface. The decreasing ratio of the AC interfacial breakdown strength in non-oiled specimens was increased by the temperature rising and its of oiled specimens was not affected by temperature.

This paper describes partial discharge phenomenon with SF6gas pressures in insulation consisting of insulation paper and SF6 gas. We made the specimens with SF6 gas gaps which exist between aramid papers and electrodes and calculated the electric field intensity in the these gaps. We measured the partial discharge inception voltages and the AC breakdown voltages with the test method of IEC 60060-2 and did the partial discharge degradation experiments with a constant voltage. According to gas pressures, the breakdown voltages in SF6gas gaps were calculated by Paschen's law. And these results showed the ability applying partial discharge inception voltages evaluation to Paschen's law and the relationship between the PD quantities occurring insulation breakdown and PD occurring area.

In this study, the interfacial dielectric breakdown phenomenon of interface between Epoxy and Rubber was discussed, which affects the stability of insulation system of power delivery devices. The breakdown strength of specimens are observed by applying high AC voltage at the room temperature. The breakdown times under the constant voltage below the breakdown voltage were gained. As constant voltage is applied, the breakdown time is proportion to the breakdown strength. The life exponent n is gained by inverse power law and the long time breakdown life time can be evaluated.

In this paper, we studied the properties of a cable insulate capacity between surfaces with the variation of the interfacial breakdown. As a function of silicon oil, the variation of pressure and interfacial roughness were investigated. The insulate trouble of a power cable is out of the interfacial parts, which breakdown the insulate breakdown capacity in a power cable. In this study, the analysis of electric field and the phenomenon of interfacial breakdown were improved by increased interfacial pressure, decreased surface roughness, and oil. And It was shown that interfacial breakdown LSR-XLPE insulators is higher that of EPDM-XLPE.

In this paper, We studied the properties of a cable insulate capacity between surfaces with the variation of the interfacial breakdown. Because the fault was mainly occurred in this interface. The insulate trouble of a power cable is out of the interfacial parts, which breakdown the insulate breakdown capacity in a power cable. As a function of silicon oil and interfacial roughness were investigated. In this study, the analysis of electric field and the phenomenon of interfacial breakdown were improved by increased interfacial of oil, decreased surface roughness.

A classic examples of the abnormal combustions are the knock and misfire, which raise noxious performance and life of the engine. A heavy knock can also cause severe damages to the engine itself, which gives more reason why it must be detected and corrected. With the response of the today's requirements, we have researched the new diagnostic system which uses the breakdown voltage characteristics between electrodes of spark plug. This breakdown voltage depends on the pressure, temperature and even the shape and material of electrodes. But there is no data of breakdown voltage in case of using the spark plug as a electrodes. So, in this study, we show the breakdown voltage characteristic by pressure and temperature in constant volume bomb, which will make it possible to diagnose the engine combustion phenomenon.

Morden electronic equipments are becoming very important in information oriented society, but they are vulnerable to lightning surges. Soil resistivity in the vicinity of grounding electrodes my be affected by the current flowing from the grounding electrodes into the surrounding soil. Electrical conduction in soils depends on the grain size, compactness, and variability of the grain sizes. When a high current is injected into the soil, and the breakdown phenomenon occur. In the present work, Electrical behaviors related to discharge in soils were investigated. The breakdown voltages in soil were lower than that sparkover voltage in air. The breakdown voltage in the gravel layer is relatively low, and the breakdown was caused by the flashover through the surface of gravels

In power cable joints, the interfaces of two different dielectric materials are inevitable. In addition, the interfacial breakdown between two internal dielectric surfaces represents one of the major causes of failure for power cable joints. We chose epoxy/EPDM interface, one of the interface in cable joints, and investigate dielectric interfacial breakdown phenomenon. First, design specimen with Flux 2D. Second, find interface condition which has high dielectric strength. Third, investigate interfacial breakdown properties with variable temperature.
