Abstract

Air insulation mainly depends on the macro factors including gap structure, applied voltage waveform and air conditions. In this chapter, the influence factors of air discharge are briefly analyzed, and the energy storage features of an air gap, consist of the electric field distribution features and the voltage waveform features are detailed introduced. Finally, the space mapping idea and its application in air insulation prediction are illustrated in detail.
