  By Digvijay B Kanase, Arun Thorat, Swapnil Patil, Suraj Pawar, Sachin P Jadhav, Vishal Patil

  Abstract: This paper provides a combined computation approach in forecasting the dielectric breakdown and electrical aging within epoxy-silica composite of insulation system. The approach will consist of a three-complementary methodology (a combination of computing electric field using the finite element analysis, estimation of the probability of failures or breakdowns using Weibull statistics, and prediction of degradation tendencies using artificial neural networks). The epoxy-silica composites are of 10-40 volumes fillers. The simulations …
