Experimental investigation on dielectric losses and electric field distribution inside nanocomposites insulation of three-core belted power cables

Abstract

With the advance of nanotechnology in the insulation materials applications the polymers underwent structural changes, seen as individual and multiple nanoparticles techniques, moreover, frequency response analysis (FRA) provides an important prospective design for multiple nanocomposites applications. In this paper, the experimental work has been done for fabrication new polyvinyl chloride nanocomposites that is using individual and multiple nanoparticles to get low dielectric loss under thermal conditions. SEM images have detected the penetration of nano additives inside polyvinyl chloride materials that are obvious the patterns of utilizing individual and multiple nanoparticles. The series of experiments have performed on multi-nanocomposites of polyvinyl chloride samples in reference to additive free multiple nanoparticles (ZnO, Clay, Al2O3, and Fumed Silica) for controlling on dielectric losses with variant thermal conditions. Also, this paper has been discussed the electric field distribution inside dielectric nanocomposites and multiple nanocomposites for three-core belted power cables based on charge simulation method (CSM). Finally, it has been defined the features layout of using multi-nanoparticles that are enhancing multi-disciplinary properties of polyvinyl chloride as power cables insulation.
