Abstract

This paper reports the experimental and theoretical investigations of particle levitation voltage on thermally aged ester fluid, under AC and harmonic AC voltages, in the presence of both electric and magnetic fields (130 mT and 160 mT). The results indicate a higher sensitivity to identify partial discharge (PD) initiated due to particle movement in aged ester fluids with an ultra-high frequency (UHF) sensor than the fluorescent fiber technique. The cause for the reduction in sensitivity of PD detection due to the fluorescent fiber technique with thermally aged fluid is analyzed using steady-state fluorescent measurement. The reduction in the levitation voltage noticed under high-frequency AC voltages is much more severe than its impact under the fundamental frequency of AC supply voltage. In addition, the presence of a magnetic field reduces the magnitude of levitation voltage substantially. The UHF signals generated due to particle movement-initiated discharges with aged ester fluids indicate a shift in its dominant frequency of 0.9 GHz under the absence of a magnetic field to around 0.6 GHz with the effect of a magnetic field.
