Design and Implementation of a Pulse Transformer and Study on Ageing of Oil impregnated Paper under Pulsed Stresses

Energy consumption keeps increasing, and more than three-quarters of the EU’s green-house gas emissions stem from it. Hence, it is important to reduce or stop burning fossil fuels to limit the temperature rise to 1.5∘C according to the Paris agreement target. Nowadays, renewable energy sources and distributed generation are increasingly...

Aging of oil-impregnated paper at different frequencies

In this work, breakdown strength and lifetime curve of oil-impregnated paper (OIP) are compared at 50Hz and 1500 Hz. For the ramp breakdown tests, sinusoidal voltage ramp of 1 kVp/s is used. The ramp breakdown experiments is conducted on OIP samples made of single and double sheets of OIP. Weibull plots and interpretation of the results are...
