Abstract

Combined ac and dc voltages may occur in high voltage power transmission system, which bring challenges to the dielectric materials. Generally speaking, space charge is well recognised under high voltage dc conditions but has received little attention under high voltage ac conditions. Under ac electric fields, the formation space charge in the material depends strongly on the frequency. The knowledge of space charge behaviour in dielectric materials under combined voltages is desirable in terms of both experimental and simulation. In this paper, a numerical model based on the bipolar charge injection/transport model is used to analyse characteristics of space charge in polyethylene under combined electric fields at room temperature. The DC component ratio and the overall root mean square (RMS) are kept the same, while the frequency of the AC component is altered from O.05Hz to 50Hz. It has been found that the amount of the accumulated charges reduces with increasing frequency due to the more frequent polarity reversal. Moreover, the time to reach the steady states of charge amount increases with frequency as well
