Abstract

To determine the characteristics of electrical breakdown of many HV electrode configurations, the formation and propagation of streamers is an important precursor to achieve this goal. It’s a major importance, when we want to improve internal and external performance insulation systems, to understand and study the interaction between the polymer surface and the development process of the streamer. A numerical tool using neural networks is developed in this context. This model allows evaluating the speed of streamers as a function of the amplitude of voltage initiation and the nature of the insulating materials. Indeed, a database was created from a laboratory model, to train different neuronal methods for predicting the evolution of streamers on the polymers surface which presents an interesting tool for estimating the propagation phenomena.
