Cerman: Software for simulating streamer propagation in dielectric liquids based on the Townsend–Meek criterion
Madshaven, Inge; Hestad, Øystein Leif Gurandsrud; Åstrand, Per-Olof (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)We present a software to simulate the propagation of positive streamers in dielectric liquids. Such liquids are commonly used for electric insulation of high-power equipment. We simulate electrical breakdown in a needle–plane ... -
Field-dependent molecular ionization and excitation energies: Implications for electrically insulating liquids
Davari, Nazanin; Åstrand, Per-Olof; Unge, Mikael; Lundgaard, Lars Esben; Linhjell, Dag (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014) -
Modeling the transition to fast mode streamers in dielectric liquids
Madshaven, Inge; Åstrand, Per-Olof; Hestad, Øystein Leif Gurandsrud; Unge, Mikael; Hjortstam, O. (Proceedings of IEEE International Conference on Dielectric Liquids;2017, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2017)A simplified model for photoionization, modeling fast streamer propagation, is combined with an existing model for slow streamers, based on electron avalanches. Transitions from fast mode to slow mode, and from slow mode ... -
Photoionization model for streamer propagation mode change in simulation model for streamers in dielectric liquids
Madshaven, Inge; Hestad, Øystein Leif Gurandsrud; Unge, Mikael; Hjortstam, Olof; Åstrand, Per-Olof (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Radiation is important for the propagation of streamers in dielectric liquids. Photoionization is a possibility, but the effect is difficult to differentiate from other contributions. In this work, we model radiation from ... -
Simulation model for the propagation of second mode streamers in dielectric liquids using the Townsend-Meek criterion
Madshaven, Inge; Åstrand, Per-Olof; Hestad, Øystein; Ingebrigtsen, Stian; Unge, Mikael; Hjortstam, Olof (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018) -
Surface and bulk properties of chromium oxide: Implications for reduction by methane
Skjelbred, Kristin Marie; Åstrand, Per-Olof; Støvneng, Jon Andreas; Andersson, Stefan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)A computational method for Cr2O3 and Cr3C2 has been established based on a systematic investigation of functionals, basis sets and corrections for dispersion, self-interaction and relativistic effects. The suggested method ...
