Effect of thermally aged oil on space charge dynamics in oil/paper insulation system
The formation of space charge in oil/paper insulation system can lead to material degradation in the high electrical field region and affect system reliability. Therefore, it is important to understand factors that affect space charge formation in oil/paper insulation system. In the present study the effect of thermally aged oil on space charge dynamics in oil/paper insulation system has been investigated using the pulsed electroacoustic (PEA) technique under different dc electrical fields at room temperature. The condition of oil was characterised. The ultraviolet/visible (UV/Vis) spectrum of oil shifts to visible wavelength and the oil acidity increased as the ageing time increased. It has been found that oil property has a significant effect on the space charge distribution of oil/paper insulation system. The more the deterioration of the oil and the higher the applied voltage, the larger the amount of negative charge injected into the paper near to the cathode and the positive charge accumulated at the paperpaper interface near to the cathode. The maximum electric field strength for oil/paper sample with seriously aged oil under 4kV and 6kV is more than 20% higher than its average electric field strength
Electrically Tunable Energy Bandgap in Dual-Gated Ultra-Thin Black Phosphorus Field Effect Transistors
The energy bandgap is an intrinsic character of semiconductors, which largely
determines their properties. The ability to continuously and reversibly tune
the bandgap of a single device during real time operation is of great
importance not only to device physics but also to technological applications.
Here we demonstrate a widely tunable bandgap of few-layer black phosphorus (BP)
by the application of vertical electric field in dual-gated BP field-effect
transistors. A total bandgap reduction of 124 meV is observed when the
electrical displacement field is increased from 0.10V/nm to 0.83V/nm. Our
results suggest appealing potential for few-layer BP as a tunable bandgap
material in infrared optoelectronics, thermoelectric power generation and
thermal imaging.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure
A Comparative Study of Physicochemical, Dielectric and Thermal Properties of Pressboard Insulation Impregnated with Natural Ester and Mineral Oil
Natural ester is considered to be a substitute of mineral oil in the future. To apply natural ester in large transformers safely, natural ester impregnated solid insulation should be proved to have comparable dielectric strength and thermal stability to mineral oil impregnated solid insulation. This paper mainly focuses on a comparative study of physicochemical, ac breakdown strength and thermal stability behavior of BIOTEMP natural ester/pressboard insulation and Karamay 25# naphthenic mineral oil/pressboard insulation after long term thermal ageing. The physicochemical and dielectric parameters including moisture, acids and the ac breakdown strength of these two oil/pressboard insulation systems at different ageing status were compared. The permittivity and ac breakdown strength of these two oil/pressboard insulation systems at different temperatures were also investigated. And a comparative result of the thermal stability behavior of these two oil/pressboard insulation systems with different ageing status was provided at last. Results show that though natural ester has higher absolute humidity and acidity during the long ageing period, the lower relative humidity of natural ester helps to keep its ac breakdown strength higher than mineral oil. The pressboard aged in natural ester also has higher ac breakdown strength than that aged in mineral oil. The lower relative permittivity ratio of natural ester impregnated paper to natural ester is beneficial to its dielectric strength. Using natural ester in transformer, the resistance to thermal decomposition of the oil/pressboard insulation system could be also effectively improved
Investigating the topological structure of quenched lattice QCD with overlap fermions by using multi-probing approximation
The topological charge density and topological susceptibility are determined
by multi-probing approximation using overlap fermions in quenched SU(3) gauge
theory. Then we investigate the topological structure of the quenched QCD
vacuum, and compare it with results from the all-scale topological density, the
results are consistent. Random permuted topological charge density is used to
check whether these structures represent underlying ordered properties.
Pseudoscalar glueball mass is extracted from the two-point correlation function
of the topological charge density. We study ensembles of different lattice
spacing with the same lattice volume , the results are
compatible with the results of all-scale topological charge density, and the
topological structures revealed by multi-probing are much closer to all-scale
topological charge density than that by eigenmode expansion.Comment: 12 pages,34 figure
