A wound potential transformer failed catastrophically on the Manitoba Hydro system. The failure was attributed to excessive current flow in the primary winding due to a sustained ferroresonance between the circuit breaker grading capacitance and nonlinear magnetizing inductance of the potential transformer. In order t…

Abstract A fumed hydrophilic nano‐silica‐filled polypropylene (PP) composite was blended with a liquid‐crystalline polymer (LCP; Rodrun LC5000). The preblended polymer blend was extruded through a capillary die; this was followed by a series of rheological and morphological characterizations. The viscosity of the PP m…
