Volt-time characteristics of small airgaps with Hyperbolic model

摘要

An experimental investigation of the volt-time characteristics of small airgaps is performed. A Hyperbolic model is proposed to account for the results. The constants of the model have a direct bearing on parameters of the Disruptive Effect model for breakdown with non-standard Lightning Impulses (Lis). Analyses with uniform and non-uniform electrodes show their effect on the Hyperbolic model parameters.
