Study of dispersion, absorption and permittivity of an synthetic insulation paper - With change in frequency and thermal aging

Abstract

This paper deals with the calculation of various parameters such as dispersion, absorption and permittivity of synthetic insulation paper to see the effect of frequency and thermal aging to be used in various industrial applications. Firstly the calculations were made for a fresh sample and then for the samples, which were aged at three different times and temperatures. These calculations were done using the earlier reported data [1] of capacitance and loss factor. The studies showed that with the increase in frequency the dispersion, absorption and permittivity of the samples decrease, however, with aging (increasing time and decreasing temperature) the values of dispersion, absorption and permittivity increase at any fixed frequency. © 2005 Elsevier Ltd.
