Abstract The aim of this work was to investigate the mechanical properties titanium anodic films (TiO 2 ) produced by oxidation under galvanostatic conditions, using a 1.4 M phosphoric acid electrolyte, with different current densities ( J on commercially pure (cp‐Ti). morphology oxide were observed scanning electron microscopy (SEM), whereas composition film determined Raman spectroscopy. Porosity, average roughness (Ra) and thickness TiO increased applied . Hardness elastic modulus...

The electrical tracking that occurs in polymeric materials used as insulators is an undesired phenomenon. We developed a method to quantify the amount of energy dissipated during occurrence surface discharges based on standard IEC 60112. uses wave form factor voltage sample main parameter determine integration period instantaneous power. function time shows linear behavior, and after certain period, change slope this curve (mean power) indicates new stage degradation process.

The ampacity of a material is defined as its maximum electrical current capacity. In an overhead transmission line, it related to the sag that does not compromise safe operation. As depends on conductor's temperature, with this parameter possible estimate ampacity, increasing efficiency system via real‐time energy dispatch management. With Brillouin backscattering phenomena, distributed temperature measurement in fibre inside optical ground wire (OPGW) or phase conductor possible. However,...

In power distribution networks, polymer insulators commonly show flaws in their interior which cannot be perceived without the use of a non-destructive inspection mechanism. This work describes methodology based on three-dimensional industrial computer tomography (CT) for automatic detection insulators. CT slices were reconstructed using 180 digital radiographs (projections) acquired by high-resolution system (pixel dimension 50 μm x μm). For reconstruction 3D CT, μm-wide bitmap used....

A nondestructive testing technique for imaging of voids and inclusions in dielectric materials high-voltage application is described. Void partial discharge occurrence induced by a narrow pulsed x-ray beam scanning the bulk epoxy sample. Phase resolved analysis recorded as function position. The data matrix used to construct digital gray scale images, which gives information about location, dimensions, activity each defect materials. This can be an important tool evaluate degradation state material.

Various apparatus for x and (gamma) -ray computed tomography (CT) have been constructed by us during the last 20 years, with aim of producing simple low-cost systems nondestructive testing. The first one was in 1980 used an Am<SUP>241</SUP> radioactive source emitting 59.6 keV -rays a single NaI(Tl)-x ray detector. Successively, substituted years x-ray tubes, detector multi- detection system such as arrays detectors image intensifiers. CT-scanner employs 160 kV tube 6' X intensifier coupled...

High-density polyethylene (HDPE) has many applications, including in the electrical sector, due to its excellent electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties. In insulators employed electricity networks, material is exposed various adverse conditions (solar radiation, humidity, temperature cycles, pollution), which can accelerate degradation of polymer, modifying properties affecting performance field. The surface resistivity HDPE hinders transmission current on surface, consequently...
