Definitions

  • This invention relates to an electrically insulating material suitable for electrical insulation applications.
  • this invention relates to an electrically insulating conductor wrap material suitable for transformers, such as liquid filled transformers.
  • a conventional insulating material is Kraft paper, which is a cellulose-based material that is often utilized in liquid filled transformers.

  • Comparative examples CE1 and CE2 were commercially available thermally upgraded cellulose-based Kraft paper that were used as received.
  • the thickness of CE 1 was 10 mil (254 microns [ ⁇ ]) and CE2 had a thickness of 3 mil (76 ⁇ ).
  • Thermally upgraded Kraft paper is chemically modified to reduce the rate at which the paper decomposes.
  • Machine Direction (MD) tensile strength and MD elongation were measured according to the procedures set forth in ASTM D-828-97 (2002), "Standard Test Method for Tensile Properties of Paper and Paperboard Using Constant-Rate-of-Elongation Apparatus.” Specimens of each sample were tested for initial tensile properties, then aged in mineral oil at 170°C for various lengths of time. Tensile properties were again measured, and the retained elongation and tensile strength were calculated as a percentage of the initial measurement before aging.
  • Oil compatibility was evaluated by aging the solid insulation in mineral oil for 168 hours at 100°C and then measuring the dissipation factor of the mineral oil as described in ASTM D-924(2008), "Standard Test Method for Dissipation Factor (or Power Factor) and Relative Permittivity of Electrical Insulating Liquids)

  • the hot and cold meter bars 2 in. (5 cm) in diameter and approximately 3 in. (7.6 cm) long, were instrumented with six evenly-spaced thermocouples, the first of which was 5.0 mm away from the interface between the bars.
  • the bars were constructed from brass, with a reference thermal conductivity of 130 W/m-K.
  • the contacting faces of the meter bars were parallel to within about 5 microns, and the force on the sample during testing was approximately 120N.
  • the thickness of the sample was measured during testing by a digital displacement transducer with a nominal accuracy of 2 microns.
  • the digital displacement transducer was zeroed.
  • the saturated nonwoven material samples were submersed into insulation oil within a glass jar and then deaerated under vacuum in a vacuum oven at room temperature (25°C).
  • the oil saturated samples were removed from the oil and placed onto the bottom meter bar.
  • the oil served as the interfacial fluid to eliminate thermal contact resistance.
  • the meter bars were closed and the normal force applied. Measurements of the heat flow through the meter bars, and the thickness of the sample were made throughout the duration of the test, typically about 30 minutes. Equilibrium was generally reached within about 10 minutes.
  • the thermal conductivity of the sample, k was then calculated from the thickness of the sample (L), the thermal conductivity of the meter bars (k m ), the temperature gradient in the meter bars (dT/dx), and the extrapolated temperature difference across the sample
  • Tables 4-6 show retained tensile strengths and % elongation of the electrically insulating saturated nonwoven materials and the thermally upgraded Kraft paper (CE1) as a function of aging time in mineral oil at 170°C.
  • Examples 1-10 all showed tensile strengths high enough within the target range of approximately 24 lb/inch (4.2 N/mm). As shown in Table 4, Examples 1-3 all showed retained tensile strengths of greater than 50% after 12 weeks aging in mineral oil at 170°C. Satisfactory oil compatibility results were obtained when dissipation factor of the mineral oil aged with Example 10 at 100°C was measured. CEl, in contrast, lost nearly all of its MD tensile strength, retaining only 3% of its unaged tensile strength after 12 weeks aging in 170°C oil. In addition, the oil in which CEl was aged for 12 weeks was also noticeably darker and cloudier than the oil from Examples 1-3, indicating the presence of degradation products from the Kraft paper.
  • Examples 1-10 all demonstrated an elongation greater than 5%, the typical minimum requirement for conductor wrap applications. (See Tables 5-6.)
  • CEl shows an elongation of only 2.3%. It should be noted that typically, moisture needs to be added to Kraft paper to increase its elongation to about 5%.
  • Example 10 The lower moisture absorption of Example 10 compared to CEl and CE2 at 50% relative humidity (RH) and 95% RH are evident from the results shown in Table 7.
  • Example 10 has a higher thermal conductivity as compared to CEl and CE2, and the dielectric strength of Example 10 in both air and mineral oil is higher than CEl .
