Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
A gas insulated electrical apparatus comprises:
a metal pipe in which an insulation gas is sealed; a conductor supported inside of the metal pipe by an insula-tion supporting member; and an insulation layer provided on the inner surface of the metal pipe, in which strong dielectric material is mixed in the insulation layer so that its specific inductive capacity becomes 10 or more.

Description

~;~44~L

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIO~
The present invention relates to a gas insulated electrical apparatus and, more particularly, to a gas insulated electrical apparatus with an arrangement which is suitable for prevention of reduction in dielectric strength of the apparatus even in the state whereby a conductive particle is mixed into the gas insulated electrical apparatus.
In many cases, gas insulated electrical apparatuses are used as an arrangement in which a high voltage structure member as a current supplying conductor is arranged in a metal pipe in which a negative gas, for instance, SF6 gas is sealingly enclosed. In the event that a conductive particle is mixed into this apparatus and drops and is deposited onto the bottom portion of the pipe, this conductive particle rises from the inner surface of the pipe in dependence upon an electric field of the inside of the pipe and floats in the gas space. The dielectric strength o~ the gas space remarkably deteriorates due to this floating conductive particle. To assure insulation reliability of the apparatus, an apparatus o~ an arrangement in which the influence of such a conductive particle can be prevented is demanded.
To solve this problem, as shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 136811/80, there is an apparatus with an arrangement in which by forming an 1 -- , . ,~, .

1 insulation layer having a high dielectric constant on the inner surEace of a pipe, a strong electrostatic attracting force which can overcome an electrostatic floatiny force that acts on a conductive particle acts between the S conductive particle and the bottom portion of the pipe due to a voltage which is applied to the apparatus and thereb~
to suppress the floating motion of the conductive particle.
In this case, it is necessary to form the insulation layer using high dielectric material whose specific inductive capacity is larger than a predetermined value. Conventional-ly, a specific inductive capacity of an organic high molecular compound can not be more than six. Although a specific inductive ca~acity of an inorganic compound such as sintered barium titanate can be thousands, the sintered barium titanate or the like is fragile and cannot be machined. Further, it is difficult to fit the sintered barium titanate to an inner surface of a pipe having a round surface.
On the other hand, it is demanded to increase the ~lectrostatic attracting force to attract a conductive particle on the insulation layer and to further improve the insulation performance of the apparatus.

SUMM~RY OF THE INVENTION
It is an object of the present invention to increase a force to attract a conductive particle on an insulation layer and to provide a gas insulated electrical apparatus in which an insulation layer which can be 5~4~

1 semipermanently sticked and fixed onto the inner surface of a pipe is ormed.
~ ccording to the present invention, the insulation layer is the coated layer formed by the mixed fluid of which fine powders having a high dielectric constant are dissolved as the filler material into the binder fluid. A
specific inductive capacity of this coated layer can be adjusted in dependence upon the mixture ratio of the filler material and the specific inductive capacity of the filler material. It has been confirmed from the experiment that when the coated layer was formed so that its specific inductive capacity becomes 10 or more, the floating action of conductive particles which were put on the coated layer was suppressed. In this way, the invention is formed by the coated layer of the mixed fluid as means for semi-permanently and stably disposing the thin film insulation layer of the high dielectric constant system on the inner surface of the apparatus.
In addition, according to the invention, to increase the electrostatic attracting force of the insula-tion layer, a conductive process is performed to one side of the insulation layer.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Referring to Figs. 1 and 2, a gas insulated electrical apparatus is constituted in a manner such that a high voltage conductor 3 which is insulatively supported by an insulation supporting member 2 is arranged in a grounded metal pipe or grounded tank 1 and an insulating gas is sealingly enclosed therein. An insulation layer 4 of the 1 high dielectric system which is formed on the inner surface of the pipe 1 is formed by a coated layer which i~ formed by coating the mixed fluid of which fine powders of strong dielectric material are dissolved in a binder fluid.
An electrostatic attracting force which can overcome an electrostatic floating force depending upon an electric field which is generated acts on conductive particles 5 and 6 which drop and are deposited on the insu-lation layer 4 between these conductive particles and the bottom portion of the pipe, so that the floating action of the conductive particles 5 and 6 which could be mixed into the apparatus is obstructed.
In order to obtain the electrostatic attracting force enough to effectively obstruct the floating action of the conductive particles, it is necessary to make a specific inductive capacity of the insulation layer larger than ten.
However, this specific inductive capacity is determined by specific inductive capacities of the binder fluid and filler material and further by the mixture ratio of them.
Fig. 3 shows the relation between the mixture ratio in the case where a general undiluted coating fluid for facing (solvent 40%, raw material 60~) i5 used as the binder fluid and fine powders of barium titanate ceramics are used as the filler material and the specific inductive capacity of the coated layer formed from that mixed fluid.
A specific inductive capacity ~r of the coated layer can be raised by increasing a mixture amount ~ of the filler material. The condition of sr > 10 can be attained by ~ , 20 3L~Z~i~L4~

1 (%, vol). On one hand, the relatlon between the mixture ratio and specific inductive capacity shown in Fig. 3 mainly varies in dependence upon the specific inductive capacity of the filler material and r can be effectively increased by use of the filler material of a large specific inductive capacity.
In addition, as the binder fluid, a fluid having a strong solidifying strength is dasirable and it is possible to derive effects such that the adhesive property of t~e coated layer onto the inner surface of the pipe is made strong and the insulation layer 4 can be semipermanently and stably fixed.
By use of anticorrosive coating material or the like as the binder fluid for the purpose of protection of the metal surface, an effect such that the insulation layer also has a metal surface protecting function such as anticorrosion or the like is derived.
On one hand, as material of tAe binder fluid, it is possible to use phenol resin, urea resin, melamine resin, alkyd resin, polyester resin, epoxy resin~ vinyl system resin~ polystyrene, acrylic resin, polyamide resin, fluoro resin, e-ster phthalate, or the like. In addition, it is also possible to use coating material and varnish containing either of the above-mentioned materials as main raw material.
Although an example whereby barium titanate ceramics is used as the filler material has been shown in the above, it is also possible to employ lithium tantalate, ~z~s~

1 sodium niobate or lithium niobate as the strong dielectric material, or fine powders of lead titanate or the like, or solid solution thereof. The mixture rakio of volumes of the binder fluid and filler material to set the specific inductive capacity ~r to be 10 or more could be attained when the filler material is over 20% in case of using barium titanate. The results in case of using other materials will then be mentioned below. The specific inductive capac~ty ~r becomes over 10 in the cases where: lead titanate is over 25~ as the volume ratio; lithium tantalate is over 10~;
lithium niobate is over 10%; and sodium niobate is over 20%.
On the other hand, by performing a polarization process by applying a DC electric field to ~he insulation layer 4, the specific inductive capacity of the insulation layer 4 can be further raised, so that the electrostatic attracting force can be further increased. Fig. 4 shows an example of the relation ~etween in attracting electric field (electric field strength ~ELo) at the inner of the pipe when the conductive particles removes from the surface of the insulation layer) of the conductive particles which are put on the insulation layer and a DC electric field EDC
upon polarization-processing. There is a case where the attracting electric field when the polarization-process is per~ormed due to EDC = 2mV is nearly as low as that of (EDC = 0mV~ in which the polarization-process is not performed. On the contrary, in the case where the polarization-process is performed due to EDC = 3.5mV, a value of ELo can be remarkably improved as compared with ~s~

1 those in the former two cases. It is possible to derive an effect of further remarkable improvement than that of a bare electrode (in the state whereby the metal surface where no insulation layer is formed is exposed) indicated by an alternately long and short dash line in the diagram.
It will be understood from this result that when the polarization-process is performed so as to satisfy the condition of EDC > 2kV, the effect of formation of the insulation layer can be efficiently utilized as much as possible.
As a method of polarization-processing, after the insulation layer 4 was formed on the inner surface of the pipe 1, a DC voltage is applied between the pipe 1 and the conductor 3 and thereby allowing the electric field over 2 kV/mm to be generated.
According to the first embodiment of the inven-tion, there are effects such that: the attracting force between the insulation layer and the particle is improved;
the insulation layer can be easily formed on the inner surface of the pipe by spray-coating the binder fluid in which the filler material was mixed or the like; its formin~
means is remarkably simplified; and the adhesive property with the inner surface of the pipe is strengthened.
Next, the second embodiment of the present inven-tion will be explained with reference to Figs. 5A, 5B, 6,and 7.
Fig. 5A is first referred. The insulation layer 4 is the dielectric plate or is formed by mixing strong ~2;;~

1 dielectric material mentioned before into the resin described above or a material of film such as polyethylene. In case of disposing the dielectric plate 4 onto the inner surface of the pipe 1, a gap ~ will have been caused between the inner surface of the pipe 1 and the dielectric plate due to limitation in working accuracy, surface roughness of the inner surface of the pipe 1, or the like. When the particles 5 charged to a charge amount of -Ql come on the dielectric plate, the charges of the opposite polarity of +Q2 com-mensurated with those charged particles are induced in thedielectric plate 4 on the side of the particles. On the contrary, the charges of -Q3 (Q3 ~ Q2) are induced in the surface on the opposite side as shown in the diagram.
Further, the charges of +Q4 of the polarity opposite to that of -Q3 are induced in the inner surface of the pipe 1 with a distance corresponding to the gap ~. Under such situation, a attracting force F12 to the particles 5 is determined by the charge amount -Ql of the charged particles, charge amount +Q2 which is induced in the surface of the dielectric plate and the distance therebetween. However, in the case where a thickness t of the dielectric plate 4 is thin, the requlsion force which is induced in the back surface of the dielectric plate due to the charges -Q3 of the same polarity as that of the particles cannot be igno~ed, so that the attracting force is not sufficiently utilized. On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 5B, if the back surface of the dielectric plate 4 is closely adhered to the inner surface of the pipe 1, -Q3 and +Q4 are _ g _ 1 mutually neutralized. Thus, the repulsion force due to -Q3 can be ignored and the attracting force F12 between -Q1 and +Q2 is sufficiently utilized, thereby making it possible to obstruct the floating of the particles.
Since the charges ~3 and +Q4 are mutually set off, as shown in Fig. 6, conductive material i5 adhered, sprayed or the like onto the back surface of the dielectric plate 4 (surface which comes into contact with the inner surface of the pipe 1), thereby forming an electrode 7.
Fig. 7 is a graph showing the effect which is obtained by forming the electrode 7 on the dielectric plate 4. An axis of ordinate indicates the relative value of the attracting electric field to attract the particles, in which the case where no dielectric plate exists is shown as 1. A of an axis of abscissa represents the dielectric plate on which the electrode 7 is not formed. In this case of A, the attracting electric field is slightly improved as compared with the conventional case where no dielectric plate exists; however, an enough effect is not derived.
On one hand, B indicates the dielectric plate on which the electrode 7 is formed and it will be understood that the attracting electric field can be improved to about three times better than that in the conventional case. Namely, according to the second embodiment of the invention, the attracting electric field of the particles can be extremely improved, so that even in the event that a particle is mixed into the gas insulated apparatus, the flowting of the particle in the state whereby a voltage is applied to the ~22~

1 apparatus can be prevented, so that the insulation reliabilty can be improved.
With respect to an arrangement of the dielectric plate, there is no need to dispose it on the whole inner surface of the grounded tank. As shown in Fig. 9, even if the dielectric plate is disposed on only the bottom portion of the tank, a sufficient effect can be expected in case of considering the action of the particles. In addition, there is no need to dispose the dielectric plate along the whole length of the tank, the dielectric plate may be partially arranged as shown in Fig. 8 as well.
The electrode 7 is omitted in Figs. 8 and 9.
On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 10, the dielectric plate can be also disposed only near an insula-tion supporting member such as an insulating spacer 8 or thelike which can be easily affected by the particles. In Fig.
10, reference numerals 9 and 10 denote metal fittings for supporting and fixing the spacer 8. In this case, the dielectric plates 4 according to the invention are formed by closely adhering the dielectric plates ~ on the upper surfaces of the supporting metal fittings 9, so that a similar effect as that shown in Fig. SB is derived. Further, there is no need to fix the dielectric plates on the bottom surface of the grounded tank but they can be built in integrally with the insulating spacer, so that this arrange-ment is advantageous in terms of manufacturing.
