  • By applying the streamer breamer breakdown criterion and the surface roughness factor, the effet of field distortion due to conductor surface roughness on breakdown is investigated theoretically in a uniform-field of compressed SF$_{6}$. It has been shown that the streamer constant has a significant influence on the threshold of breakdown and different shapes of protrusions do not result in different thresholds of breakdowns. Moreover, uniform-field tests can give results which apply to e-ratio coaxial-electrode systems of practical dimensions, and may offer some advantages compared with coaxial-electrode tests.s.

  • The axial discharge at switching operations of EHV $SF_6$ disconnector can lead to the breakdown to the enclosure. Precursor in periphery zone leads to formation of leader over some time delay. Injected charge value depends on electric field and gap geometry. The calculation method for parameters of $SF_6$ insulation for DS in EHV-GIS is suggested by using the new criterion of leader inception in connection with periphery field nearby the boundary of streamer zone.

  • In a uniform field, when an electrode with a hemispherical protrusion is set in atmosphere, by applying the streamer breakdown criterion and the surface roughness factor, the effect of field distortion due to electrode surface roughness on breakdown is investigated theoretically. A quantitative relation between the threshold of breakdown and the air pressure times the heigh of protrusion is derived by the aid of a computor and the results are compared with that of SF$_{6}$./.

  • In this paper, computer simulations of the physical Phenomena occurring in the arc region before and after current zero were carried out to evaluate the dielectric recovery characteristics of two types of double-flow nozzles. A commercial CFD Program "PHOENICS" is used for the simulation and the user-coded subroutines to consider the arcing phenomena were added to this program by the authors. The computed results were verified by the comparison with the test results presented by the research group of BBC. In order to investigate the state of the arc region after current zero, the simulation was carried out with four steps. They are cold gas flow analysis, steady state arc simulation, transient arc simulation before current zero, transient hot gas flow simulation after current zero. The semi-experimental arc radiation model is adapted to consider the radiation energy transport and Prandtl′s mixing length model is employed as the turbulence model. The electric field and the magnetic field were calculated with the same grid structure used for the simulation of the flow field. The streamer criterion was introduced to evaluate the dielectric recovery characteristics after current zero. Compared with the results obtained by assuming the current zero state in the former studies, it has been found that the results obtained by considering the state before current zerowere more accurate.

  • The reduction in the breakdown field strength due to electrode surface roughness was calculated by applying the streamer breakdown criterion and the surface roughness factor, and measurements of static breakdown voltage for a gap with an artificial protrusion were made under the uniform field at pressures up to 4 bar in pressurized $SF_{6}$. The effect of polarity of highly stressed electrode on the breakdown field strength was also investigated. The measurements have shown that the measured breakdown levels for a protrusion located on the cathode agree with those calculated and the values measured with an identical anode protrusion are substantially higher and more scattered. This may be explained if it assumed that a high rate of production of initiatory electrons is maintained at the tip of a cathode protrusion by field emission. In practical point of view, the breakdown levels in pressurized $SF_{6}$ can be bereliably estimated from the values calculated.

  • In this paper, the theoritical breakdown characteristics of $N_2$and $SF_{6}$ in uniform field are studied by streamer criterion and the effective ionisation coefficients. Evaluation of the breakdown voltage for $N_2$and $SF_{6}$ has been done over following ranges: $N_2$: 100.0 $\leq$pd$\leq$10000.0(Torr cm) $SF_{6}$: 100.0$\leq$pd$\leq$6000.0(Torr cm) Computed values are compared with those of experiment. The results show a good agreement between the computed and the experimental values.

  • $SF_6$ is the most commonly used insulating gas in electrical systems. But In these days $SF_6$ mixtures and alternative gas has been studied because of global warming. so although many studies have been carried out about binary gas mixtures with $SF_6$, few studies were presented about breakdown characteristics of $SF_6/N_2$ mixtures. At present study the breakdown characteristics of $SF_6/N_2$ mixtures in Non-uniform field was performed. In this paper, The simulation value are compared with experiment values. Streamer breakdown criterion was used for predicting breakdown voltage. For accurate simulation this simulation apply utilization factor using CST(computer simulation technology) EM $studio^{tm}$ program. AC breakdown experiments in non-uniform field was performed to compare with the breakdown simulation values. The pressure range of gas mixtures was 0.4 MPa to 0.7 MPa. The rod-plane was used and mixture ratio is $SF_6$ 20% : $N_2$ 80%. The gap lengths are 10mm to 70mm. As the pressure increase, this simulation value does not correspond to the experiment value. So this simulation need surface roughness factor. As a result of applying surface roughness factor this simulation decrease a relative error (|experiment value - simulation value| /simulation value).
