Room temperature vulcanized (RTV) silicone rubber coatings are used increasingly on outdoor high voltage (HV) insulators subjected to heavy pollution. An important property of the RTV coatings is the ability to restore the surface hydrophobicity after a pollutant layer has built up on the surface, which can suppress t…

During a hypothetical severe accident in a pressurized water reactor (PWR), fission products (FPs) are released from the nuclear fuel and may reach the reactor containment building. Among the FPs, ruthenium is of particular interest due to its ability to form volatile oxide compounds in highly oxidizing conditions. In…

Chemical byproducts analysis has been recognized as a powerful diagnosis method for SF6gas-insulated switchgear (GIS). The authors have previously demonstrated that a carbon nanotube (CNT) gas sensor could detect partial discharge (PD) generated in SF6gas. However, PD-generated decomposition gas species, which were re…
