Produktbeschreibung
Inspired by a new revival of worldwide interest in extra-high-voltage (EHV) and ultra-high-voltage (UHV) transmission, High Voltage Engineering merges the latest research with the extensive experience of the best in the field to deliver a comprehensive treatment of electrical insulation systems for the next generation of utility engineers and electric power professionals. The book offers extensive coverage of the physical basis of high-voltage engineering, from insulation stress and strength to lightning attachment and protection and beyond. Presenting information critical to the design, selection, testing, maintenance, and operation of a myriad of high-voltage power equipment, this must-have text: Discusses power system overvoltages, electric field calculation, and statistical analysis of ionization and breakdown phenomena essential for proper planning and interpretation of high-voltage tests Considers the breakdown of gases (SF6), liquids (insulating oil), solids, and composite materials, as well as the breakdown characteristics of long air gaps Describes insulation systems currently used in high-voltage engineering, including air insulation and insulators in overhead power transmission lines, gas-insulated substation (GIS) and cables, oil-paper insulation in power transformers, paper-oil insulation in high-voltage cables, and polymer insulation in cables Examines contemporary practices in insulation coordination in association with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) definition and the latest standards Explores high-voltage testing and measuring techniques, from generation of test voltages to digital measuring methods With an emphasis on handling practical situations encountered in the operation of high-voltage power equipment, High Voltage Engineering provides readers with a detailed, real-world understanding of electrical insulation systems, including the various factors affecting-and the actual means of evaluating-insulation performance and their application in the establishment of technical specifications.

Autorenporträt
Farouk A.M. Rizk holds a BS and MS from Cairo University, Egypt; a Ph.D from the Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden; and a doctorate of technology from Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden. He has worked with ASEA (ABB), Sweden; the Egyptian Electricity Authority; and the Institut de Recherche d'Hydro-Quebec, Varennes, Canada. As international chairman of IEC TC 28: Insulation Coordination, he made major contributions to standardization. An elected IEEE fellow for contributions to the science of high-voltage technology and for technical leadership in the advancement of the electric power industry, many times awarded, and a CIGRE distinguished member, he is currently president of Lightning Electrotechnologies, Inc. and Expodev, Inc., both in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. His research covers many topics in high-voltage and high-power engineering. Giao N. Trinh holds a BS and Ph.D from Laval University, Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. He has worked with the Institut de Recherche d'Hydro-Quebec, Varennes, Canada and Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal, Quebec, Canada. He holds two patents and is the author or co-author of many technical papers in the areas of corona and partial-discharge phenomena, high voltage testing, and liquid, solid, and gaseous power equipment insulation. An elected IEEE fellow for contributions to the understanding of dielectric and arc phenomena in gas-insulated cables and PES, and a DEIS member, he received a Prize Paper Award from the Substation Committee for his work on the assessment of the risk of burn-through of gas-insulated cables.
