THERMAL CONTRACTION AND CRACKING OF EXTRUDED POLYETHYLENE ELECTRICAL INSULATION AT CRYOGENIC TEMPERATURES.

Type of article: Article
Summary
THERMAL CONTRACTION AND CRACKING OF EXTRUDED POLYETHYLENE INSULATED MODEL CABLE WERE INVESTIGATED AT CRYOGENIC TEMPERATURES. IT WAS POSSIBLE TO COOL DOWN SAMPLES TO 77 OR 4.2 K WITHOUT CRACKING BY GRADUAL COOLING. RAPID COOLING OR LOCALIZED COOLING CAUSED LONGITUDINAL CRACKING. THE EXPERIMENTS AND THEORETICAL ANALYSIS SHOWED THAT GRADUAL GAS COOLING TO AT LEAST 135 K IS ESSENTIAL TO PREVENT CRACK FORMATION. EFFECTS OF CABLE BENDING AND MECHANICAL DEFECTS IN THE POLYETHYLENE INSULATION LAYER WERE EXAMINED.
