Abstract
This paper presents dielectric characteristics of $N_2$ gas under impulse voltages in a quasi-uniform electric field gap. The experiments were carried out at the test gap applied by the 1.2/50[${\mu}s$] lightning impulse voltage, 180/2500[${\mu}s$] switching impulse voltage, 500[ns]/1[MHz] very fast transient overvoltage(VFTO). The gap separation of sphere-to-plane electrodes was 14[mm] and the electric field utilization factor was about 71.2[%]. The gas pressure ranges from 0.2 to 0.6[MPa]. As a result, the electrical breakdowns are occurred by streamer discharge. Breakdown voltages are linearly increased with the gas pressure and the highest breakdown voltage is appeared under the VFTOs having fast rising time. Breakdown voltages under the positive impulse voltages were higher than those under the negative ones, and also the time to breakdown in the positive polarity is longer than that in the negative polarity.
본 논문은 준평등전계중에서 임펄스전압에 대한 $N_2$가스의 절연파괴특성에 관한 것으로 실험은 1.2/50[${\mu}s$] 표준뇌임펄스전압, 180/2500[${\mu}s$] 개폐임펄스전압과 500[ns]/1[MHz] 급준성 과도과전압이 인가된 전극계에서 이루어졌다. 구-평판 전극의 간격은 14[mm]이고, 전계이용률은 71.2[%]이었으며 가스압력은 0.2~0.6[MPa]범위로 하였다. 그 결과 절연파괴는 스트리머방전에 의하여 일어났으며, 절연파괴전압은 상승시간이 빠른 급준성 과도과전압에서 가장 높게 나타났다. 정극성 절연파괴전압이 부극성보다 높았으며, 정극성의 경우 절연파괴까지의 시간도 더 긴 것으로 나타났다.
