The effect of the axial heat transfer on space charge accumulation phenomena in HVDC cables
2020
To date, it has been widespread accepted that the presence of space charge within the dielectric of high voltage direct current (HVDC) cables is one of the most relevant issues that limits the growing diffusion of this technology and its use at higher voltages. One of the reasons that leads to the establishment of space charge within the insulation of cables is the temperature dependence of its conductivity. Many researchers have demonstrated that high temperature drop over the insulation layer can lead to the reversal of the electric field profile. In certain conditions, this can over-stress the insulation during polarity reversal (PR) and transient over voltages (TOV) events accelerating …
Electrolyte Flow and Temperature Calculations in Finite Cylinder Caused by Alternating Current
2006
The distribution of electromagnetic fields, forces and source term of temperature induced by an alternating axially-symmetric system of electric current in a cylinder of a finite length with 6 electrodes has been investigated and calculated in [2, 1].
Comparative Determinations of Magnetic Induction in AC and DC Circuits
2019
The influence of the electromagnetic field on the human body, although still heavily studied, can have long-term negative effects. The static electromagnetic field is generated by a continuous current source and has a current flow characteristic conventionally set + from -. The variable electromagnetic field is produced by the alternating current and has the ability to change its direction over time with a frequency of 50 or 60 Hz. It is considered that the non-hazardous limit value for the magnetic field (according to Federal Office for Radiation Security in Germany) is 100 microT for 50 Hz and 83 microT for 60 Hz. For the electric field, the exposure limit value is 5kV/m. Electromagnetic …
Overcoming synchronization issues in wireless technology Partial Discharge measurement
2016
In this paper, several aspects of the fundamentals of wireless Partial Discharge (PD) measurements are first discussed. Then, the relevance of the problem of voltage synchronization in PD wireless diagnosis is outlined. When portable instruments are used for PD detection, the main issue is the voltage measurement at the site where the PD detection is carried out. When such analysis is carried out over shielded cables, the AC (50/60 Hz) voltage reference signal is not easily detectable, while one of the basic parameters for PD diagnosis, the displacement of the inception voltage of the PD as compared to the reference voltage, is not available. Even if highperformance sensors are readily avai…
Kilohertz and Low-Frequency Electrical Stimulation With the Same Pulse Duration Have Similar Efficiency for Inducing Isometric Knee Extension Torque …
2017
International audience; Objective To test the hypotheses that, as compared with pulsed current with the same pulse duration, kilohertz frequency alternating current would not differ in terms of evoked-torque production and perceived discomfort, and as a result, it would show the same current efficiency.Design A repeated-measures design with 4 stimuli presented in random order was used to test 25 women: (1) 500-microsecond pulse duration, (2) 250-microsecond pulse duration, (3) 500-microsecond pulse duration and low carrier frequency (1 kHz), (4) 250-microsecond pulse duration and high carrier frequency (4 kHz). Isometric peak torque of quadriceps muscle was measured using an isokinetic dyna…
Creation of Temperature Field in a Finite Cylinder by Alternated Electromagnetic Force
2004
One of the modern areas of applications developed during last years is effective use of electrical energy produced by alternating current in production of heat energy. This process is ecologically clean.The water is weakly electrically conducting medium (electrolyte). Devices based on this principle are developed during last ten years. Compared to classical devices with heating elements, new devices are more compact.
Partial discharge behavior under single phase half and full-bridge rectifier
2017
The aim of the present work is to simulate partial discharges (PDs) phenomena under voltage stress close to the Direct Current (DC) waveform. The employed waveforms have been realized by using a full-wave and a half-wave rectifiers. After that, in order to generate a steadier voltage supply, a capacitive filter has been inserted in the output of the half-wave rectifier. Simulations have been carried out by modifying a previous software used in the case of Alternating Current (AC). Finally, experimental tests have been carried out in order to validate simulation results.
Remote voltage synchronization for wireless Partial Discharge diagnostics
2016
The main objective of this paper is the assessment of the exact phase angle displacement of each Partial Discharge, PD, pulse with respect to the voltage reference waveform. Such problem also referred to as ‘synchronization’ is relevant when the cable is not accessible and the PD measure is carried out in wireless mode. It is well known, that the angle phase shift, due to the propagation phenomenon on the transmission line, can be calculated knowing the line type and length and typical operating conditions of the transmission line. The setup comprises a customized electronic device, the “Phase check”, a server to collect remote measurements and a Look up table to provide corrections to the …

Der Einfluss von Wechselströmen verschiedener Stärke auf die Antibiotikaproduktion durch Schimmelpilze in Oberflächenkulturen
1952
Low alternating currents between 8 and 50 mA have a stimulating effect on the production of antibiotics by moulds in surface cultures using the medium ofVincent. Small differences of current intensity at low ranges cause no principally different results. The production of all antibiotics formed by the same species of mould is increased under the influence of low alternating currents.
