Abstract: | The properties of streamers traveling over the surface of oil-immersed solid dielectrics were experimentally studied under lightning impulse conditions. Streamer polarity and the position of a grounded side electrode significantly affected the relationship between the streamer extension length and the applied voltage. Solid surface charging also had a large effect on the streamer propagation. However, the streamer propagation properties showed a consistent dependence on the potential at the solid-liquid interfaces. In addition, the potential drop inside the streamer channel was measured as a function of normalized streamer length. The curve revealed that the potential drop increased drastically within the region of ~20% from the streamer tip. The streamer appeared to progress with a constant mean velocity |
