The Significance of High-Speed Cameras in Insulating Oil Discharge
Experimental background and significance
1. Experimental background In response to the research needs of transformer insulating oil, a laboratory proposed to observe the growth process of discharge in insulating oil through high-speed photography technology. Due to the extremely fast discharge speed, traditional observation methods are difficult to capture dynamic details, and high-frame rate high-speed cameras are needed to obtain effective experimental data.
Research significance
The main function of insulating oil is to isolate the current between conductive parts and prevent short circuit or breakdown inside the equipment. Discharge phenomenon may indicate aging, contamination or deterioration of the insulating oil (such as the mixing of moisture, impurities, gas or carbonized particles), resulting in a decrease in its insulation performance. The dielectric strength of the insulating oil can be quantified through discharge characteristics (such as discharge intensity, frequency, waveform, etc.).
