Positive Streamer Initiation in SF6/CO2 Based on Zener's Field Ionization

Guang-Yu Sun

In this study, experiments were performed to measure the inception and breakdown voltages of SF6/CO2 mixed gases with varying mixing ratios at two different pressures (1 and 2 bar). Using the preliminary data obtained from the experiments, a 3D particle mo ...
