Abstract

The calculation of very high divergent electric fields plays a dominant role for the full understanding of the breakdown mechanisms in the high voltage engineering. Approximate calculation methods may lead to a false dimensioning of the insulating systems. This paper introduces an accurate way for calculation such high divergent fields. Based on the optimized charge simulation method, the paper demonstrates an accurate field calculation of typical examples. The proposel examples are the shielded and unshielded needle-plate electrode systems used in the water treeling investigations of polymeric insulating.
