• Arc Voltage Distribution Measurement in Tube Constricted Ultrahigh-Pressure Nitrogen Arc 

      Abid, Fahim; Niayesh, Kaveh; Støa-Aanensen, Nina Sasaki (Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering;599, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      This work contributes to the fundamental understanding of axial voltage distribution of the arc burning inside polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) tube at very high filling pressures of nitrogen. The arc peak current of 85 A ...
    • Effect of Filling Pressure on Post-Arc Gap Recovery of N2 

      Abid, Fahim; Niayesh, Kaveh; Viken, Egil; Støa-Aanensen, Nina Sasaki; Jonsson, Erik; Meyer, Hans Kristian Hygen (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Experimental investigation of the effect of filling pressure on the post-arc dielectric recovery characteristics of nitrogen is reported in this paper. A half-cycle arc current duration of 540 μs followed by a 10 kV pulse ...
    • Thermal interruption performance of ultrahigh-pressure free-burning nitrogen arc 

      Abid, Fahim; Niayesh, Kaveh; Thimmappa, Shashidhara Basavapura; Espedal, Camilla; Støa-Aanensen, Nina Sasaki (Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering;599, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      In this paper, an experimental investigation of the thermal interruption performance of free-burning nitrogen arcs at 1 bar, 20 bar, and 40 bar filling pressures is reported. This work contributes to the fundamental ...
    • Ultrahigh-Pressure Nitrogen Arcs Burning Inside Cylindrical Tubes 

      Abid, Fahim; Niayesh, Kaveh; Støa-Aanensen, Nina Sasaki (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      When the pressure and temperature of a fluid exceed a critical point, the fluid enters into the supercritical (SC) region. In this region, the physical properties are believed to be in favor of a good current interruption ...
