The purpose of this paper is to investigate the changes in the electric field intensity due to the presence of dust on the 63 kV porcelain insulators using finite element method (FEM). The investigating Insulators were drawn in three different models (without dust layer as a basic structure, with uniform dust layer and heterogeneous dust layer) using AutoCAD software and in continue are analyzed with utilization of COMSOL software. Finally the derived values are analyzed and discussed in details. It is shown that the dust layer has an adverse effect on the electric field pattern, and the higher the concentration and volume of dust placed on the surface of insulators, results to an adverse effect on the electric field intensity around the porcelain insulator.

PTFE samples were prepared with different thicknesses. Their electric field intensity and distribution of the PTFE samples placed inside a rectangular waveguide were simulated using finite element method. The calculation of transmission/reflection coefficients for all samples thickness was achieved via FEM. Amongst other observable features, result from calculation using FEM showed that the attenuation for the 15 mm PTFE sample is −3.32 dB; the 30 mm thick PTFE sample has an attenuation of 0.64 dB, while the 50 mm thick PTFE sample has an attenuation of 1.97 dB. It then suffices to say that, as the thickness of the PTFE sample increases, the attenuation of the samples at the corresponding thicknesses increases.

In the current study, the finite element analysis was used to simulate the change in electric field intensity due to the change of needle diameter and length, receiving distance,voltage and the spacing between needles located in a row. The resulting conclusion could be used to guide the design and manufacture of electrospinning machines at industrial scale.

Water treeing phenomenon has an important and effective role in the service life of polymeric insulators used in the transmission and distribution of electricity. Water trees can be described as permanently localized degradations or damages that can occur in the presence of electric field and humidity. XLPE is widely used as a polymeric insulator material in medium and high voltage cable applications. An experimental setup was prepared to initiate and grow water trees artificially in a laboratory environment and the tests were performed in accordance with the actual values. The electrical and dielectric values of the test material were used for a detailed analysis with high accuracy. The magnitude of the electric field, which was defined by varying the distance between the water needles formed in the XLPE material and the aluminium plate electrode, has been analyzed for various conditions. After laboratory experiments, electric field and potential distribution were simulated and analyzed by FEM (Finite Element Method) using FEMM (Finite Element Method Magnetics) software package. Experiments revealed clearly, that even small changes in the shape of water needle can dramatically affect the electric field and hence the lifetime of the insulator. By using FEMM, both of these parameters (electric field and potential distribution) can be calculated rapidly with high accuracy. HVDC power cables play a significant role in electric power transmission, hence by using the previously described experimental setup, electric field and potential distribution were simulated and analyzed under DC voltage.
