A new type of nonthermal plasma reactor utilizing ferroelectric pellets is proposed to generate nonthermal plasma efficiently, which is used for simultaneous control of various pollutant gases. Electric charges stored on ferroelctric pellets by corona discharge between a corona tip and a mesh electrode provide partial electrical discharges among ferroelectric pellets. These partial electrical discharges can enhance partial discharges around the surface of ferroelectric pellets. This method utilizes wide reacting area of ferroelectric pellets and partial discharge. Positive and negative dc voltage are applied to the corona tip to generate partial discharges, and corona currents are estimated to investigate charge storage on ferroelectric pellets as function of time and charge relaxation time constants of ferroelectric pellects. As a result, charge relaxationtime, dielectric constants of ferroelectric pellets, polarity of applied voltage and applied time influence partial discharges among ferroelectric pellect.

This paper conducted the basic study on partial discharge analysis under the DC voltage. For the purpose, typical discharges such as void discharges, corona discharges and surface discharges with DC voltage were generated and measured. As a pattern analysis, various methods were adopted using the information including PD magnitudes and time interval.

GIS is a typical power equipment with higher reliability. It is compact and safe because all the energized parts are enclosed by a sealed cylindrical tank which is filled with $SF_6$. Generally gas insulated power equipments like GIS are designed to have sufficient electrical strength to prevent partial discharges under normal operating condition. Despite of the careful processes in manufacturing, transporting and assembling, voids or particles can be created, resulting in partial discharges at electrically weak points. The key factors causing partial discharges in GIS are; particles, voids in solid insulation, protrusions, poor contact of metal components, etc. The particle can be attached on; spacers, electrodes, internal wall of the GIS tank. It also moves in GIS freely. Most of partial discharges are likely to occur when particles are attached to spacers. In this paper, the electrical characteristics of a surface discharge were investigated under various conditions by using simulation program of FEMLAB.

In this paper, it was investigated the characteristics of PD(partial discharge) pulse shapes in oil and the possibility of TF(Time-Frequency) analysis for the discrimination of air corona in on-site PD measurement of oil transformers. For the purpose, single and multiple discharges combined with oil discharges and air corona were generated and measured by use of artificial models through the HFPD pulse detector and the oscilloscope. PD pulse shapes were different according to the type of defects, especially including air corona- pulses. Also, through the TF analysis, data clusters could be classified each other in the TF Map, even in the case of multiple discharges. Therefore, it is known that TF analysis could be aprlied for the improvement of on-site PD measurement in oil transformers.

UHF PD sensor has some disadvantages in measuring void discharges due to their frequency characteristics lower than 300MHz. Therefore, in this study, the possibility of VHF sensor in measuring partial discharges(PD) in GIS was investigated using simulated experiments. As a result, by installing VHF sensors to the copper bus of the encloser in GIS, it is confirmed that partial discharges could be perfectly detected, which means that VHF PD measuring technique can be the alternative of UHF PD method.

Partial discharges(PD)in air insulated electric power apparatus often lead to deterioration of solid insulation by electron bombardments and electrochemical reaction. The PD caused to reduce the life time of power apparatus and to increase power losses. Thus understanding and classification of PD patterns in air are very important to discern sources of PD. In this paper, PD in air by using statistical methods was investigated. We classified air discharges, corona, surface discharges and cavity discharges by Kohonen network. For classification of PD patterns, we used statistical operators and parameters such as skewness$(S^+,\; S^-),\; kurtosis(K^+, K^-),\; mean phase(AP^+, AP^-)$, cross-correlation factor(CC) and asymmetry derived from the mean pulse-height phase distribution$(H_{avg}(\phi))$, the max pulse-height phase distribution $(H_{qmax}(\phi))$, the pulse count phase distribution $(H_n(\phi))$ and the pulse height vs. Repetition rate $(H_q(n))$.

In this paper, in order to investigate availability of the OW-PD measurement method which has been proposed as an alternative of AC-PD measurement method to an after laying test and/or diagnosis for the power cable system, partial discharges owing to the needle-type defect integrated into the cable have been measured using AC and OW(Oscillating Wave) voltages. In the AC-PD measurement, the magnitude, phase and pulse number of partial discharges have been changed with the duration of voltage application, which can be analyzed through the relation with the process of the electrical tree initiation and propagation. In addition, the characteristics of partial discharges using OW voltage are appeared to be similar to those in case of AC-PD measurement and to be different with the shapes of electrical tree. From these results, it is concluded that the OW-PD measurement method is available to the tests for the cable system.

In this paper, using a wide-band AE sensor with the frequency range from 100[kHz] to 1.5[kHz], the frequency spectra of AE signals generated from the corona discharges of the needle-plane gap and from the partial discharges of an epoxy void were analyzed to determine the proper ultrasonic sensor with optimum frequency range according to the patterns of corona discharges. We also examined the propagation characteristics of AE signals in oil and the relationship between the magnitude of corona discharge and the magnitude of AE signals in peak-to-peak value under the application of 60[Hz] ac high-voltage. From these results, the main frequency spectra of AE signals emitted from the corona discharges of the needle-plane gap were about 130[kHz] by the fast fourier transform, but the main frequency spectra appeared to be 230[kHz] in the partial discharges of an epoxy void. The magnitude of AE signals was proportional to the magnitude of corona discharge and discharge current pulse with increasing the applied voltages.

Surface corona discharge characteristics of a dc corona charged ferroelectric pellet barrier have been investigated experimentally. Electric charges stored on the surfaces of the ferroelectric pellets by a dc corona discharge provide partial electric fields on the surfaces of the ferroelectric pellets, which could generate surface corona discharges on the ferroelectric pellets. This system utilizes both the surface discharges on the ferroelectric pellet barrier and the corona discharge between corona tip and mesh electrode. Positive and negative dc voltages were applied to the tip to generate partial discharges, and corona currents were estimated to investigate the buildup charge on ferroelectric pellets as a function of the applied time and the charge relaxation time constants of ferroelectric pellets. As a result, in the case of the negative corona discharge with the ferroelectric pellet barrier, the mean corona current and ozone generation increase greatly, and the surface discharges on the ferroelectric pellets can be fenerated efficiently. It is also found that, charge relaxation time, dielectric constants offerroelectric pellets, polarity of applied voltage and applied time affected to the surface discharges among the ferroelectric pellets.

This paper describes the influence on partial discharge characteristics of defects at the model XLPE/EPDM interfaces of power cable joints. The defects of void and copper which could inadvertently be present at the joint interface. We measured ${\Phi}-n,\;{\Phi}-q$ patterns by a computer-aided partial discharge measuring system. Several parameters i, e, maximum discharge $q_{max}$ [pC], average discharge q [pC/cycle], and average angle of discharge ${\Theta}g$ [deg] were found to depend upon the defect type varying applied voltage. As the result of time evaluation, partial discharges are small different at copper defects, but is decreasing obviously about 20 minutes at void defect. It considered that difference of magnitude of total positive discharge of Q+ [pC] and total negative discharge of Q- [pC] is SPMD(swarming pulsive micro discharges).
