Effect of coating of dielectric in a 3-phase GIB with particle movement

Abstract

The dielectric coating effect on the motion of the Particle inside a Gas Insulated Bus duct (GIB) of three phase using epoxy resin coating of dielectric inside f GIB outer enclosure of inner surface without image charge is presented in this paper. Simulation is performed by considering various parameters like drag, gravitational and the electrostatic forces acting on the particle and a mathematical model was derived. A 2nd order differential equation for the particle motion is solved and restitution coefficient was considered at each impact of particle with the GIB enclosure. At the particle locations, estimation of electric fields instantaneously was made by CSM. The particle motion in the absence of effect of image charge is considered in a 3-phase GIB with dielectric coating. For voltage levels like 220kV, 400kV, 600kV and 800kV class, the movement of radial in nature is found for particles like aluminum and copper inside GIB. Analysis of all the results were done and presented in this paper.
