Positive Streamer Propagation in Transformer Oil
Application ID: 129181
This example simulates the propagation of a positive streamer in transformer oil under a lightning impulse voltage. The space charge density and the electric field are obtained. The simulated streamer radius agrees well with the measured values.
This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
however, additional products may be required to completely define and model it. Furthermore, this example may also be defined and modeled using components from the following product combinations:
The combination of COMSOL® products required to model your application depends on several factors and may include boundary conditions, material properties, physics interfaces, and part libraries. Particular functionality may be common to several products. To determine the right combination of products for your modeling needs, review the Tabella delle Funzionalità and make use of a free evaluation license. The COMSOL Sales and Support teams are available for answering any questions you may have regarding this.
