Development of a Space Charge Measurement Method Applied to HVDC GIS Spacers
The development of HVDC networks leads to an increasing need of Gas Insulating Substations (HVDC-GIS). When an insulator is subjected to high thermoelectric dc DC stress, space charge accumulation can induce local increases of the electric field, which must be known and taken into account for the equipment design when the fields exceed several kV/mm.
Creeping Discharge and Flashover of Solid Dielectric in Air at Atmospheric Pressure
This paper is aimed at the study of the propagation of discharge at the surface of solid insulator and the development of an analytical model of flashover in air.
CEIDP 2016 Toronto – Fluoronitriles / CO2
This paper is aimed at the comparison of breakdown voltages of SF6 and mixtures at different concentrations of Fluoronitriles in CO2. The experiments are conducted in different electrodes geometries under DC and lightning impulse voltages.
Fluoronitriles/ CO2 gas mixture as promising substitute to SF6 for insulation in high voltage applications
This paper is aimed at the breakdown characteristics of Fluoronitriles – CO2 gas mixtures in different experimental conditions; these mixtures constitute promising substitutes to SF6 gas in high voltage applications especially gas insulating switchgear (GIS).
Dielectric behaviour of a new grade of cross-linked polyethylene for HVDC cables
In order to ensure the energy transmission from remote production stations to load centres, it is well known that High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) presents some advantages compared to High Voltage Alternative Current (HVAC).

CFD Investigation of Complex Phenomena in S-Shape Region of Reversible Pump-Turbine
Pumped Storage Plants (PSP) using reversible pump-turbines offer the possibility to store large amounts of energy with high efficiency and at reasonable cost. For reversible high head pump-turbines, the characteristic curves exhibit an S-shape in the turbine, turbine break and reverse pump quadrants. This S-shape leads to unstable behavior of the turbine when coupling to the grid (for small guide vane opening) or to surge transient phenomena in case of emergency shutdown (for large guide vane opening).
