Corona discharge, as one of the partial discharge (PD) modes, emits electromagnetic (EM)
waves in the ultrahigh frequency (UHF) range. In order to study the behavior of the EM …

The present paper investigates the breakdown characteristics—breakdown voltage, with
breakdown occurring on the rising edge of the applied HV impulses, and time to breakdown …

The use of SF6 in electrical insulation and fast-switching applications cannot be
overemphasized. This is due to its excellent dielectric properties and high breakdown …

As the miniaturization and power of microwave devices increases, there is a growing risk of
high-power microwave (HPM) breakdown, severely impacting the reliable performance of …

Replacing SF6 in electrical devices has been a central concern of the electrical industry for
years. Indeed, SF6 is the gas with the highest known global warming power. For many years …

SF6, though its excellent dielectric and physical properties is still a greenhouse gas with
global warming potential, GWP of~ 23900 over a period of 100 years. With an increase in …

Gas insulated transmission lines (GILs) are used in electrical systems mainly for power
transmission and High Voltage substation interconnection. In this paper, we focus on the …

The development of High Voltage Direct Current Gas-Insulated components that will be
employed for the power supply of Neutral Beam Injectors, requires specific numerical tools …

This paper investigates the breakdown of two microstrip antennas through experiments and
particle-in-cell simulations. The breakdown thresholds of a microstrip dipole antenna and a …

The Meek-Raether criterion underpins much of the current physical understanding of gas
breakdown. The classical kinetic approach estimates the moment of transition from …
