Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Building a new type of power system is the key to promoting the high-quality development of energy and electricity under the "dual carbon" goal. The requirements for the construction of a new type of power system will inevitably bring huge challenges and changes to the operation and maintenance of the power grid. To significantly improve the transparency level of the power grid, enhance the quality and efficiency of the energy supply chain, and ensure the safe operation of the new power system, it is increasingly important to research and develop advanced materials, as well as sensing, monitoring, and diagnostic technologies, and to achieve the digital and intelligent transformation of power system equipment.

We are therefore organizing a Special Issue on the topic of "Advanced Dielectric Materials, Sensing, Monitoring, and Diagnostic Technologies for High-Voltage Equipment in New Power Systems", and issue a call for submissions to experts and scholars in this field at home and abroad to jointly explore the cutting-edge progress, difficulties/challenges, and future development directions in this field. Experts and scholars in related fields are welcome to actively submit articles.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

This article continues the authors’ research on NOMEX® 910 cellulose–aramid insulation saturated with modern electrical insulating liquids, which is increasingly used in the construction of high-power transformers The increase in technical requirements and environmental awareness influences, nowadays, shows that, during the overhaul and modernization of power transformers, petroleum-based mineral oils are increasingly being replaced by biodegradable synthetic esters (oil retrofilling). As a result of this process, the solid insulation of the windings are saturated with an oil–ester liquid mixture with a percentage composition that is difficult to predict. The purpose of the research described in this paper was to test the effect of the degree of mixing of synthetic ester with mineral oil on the diagnostic measurements of NOMEX® 910 cellulose–aramid insulation realized via the polarization PDC method. Thus, the research conducted included determining the influence of such factors as the degree of mixing of synthetic ester with mineral oil and the measurement temperature on the value of the recorded time courses of the polarization and depolarization current. The final stage of the research involved analyzing the extent to which the aforementioned factors affect parameters characterizing polarization processes in the dielectric, i.e., the dominant dielectric relaxation time constants τ1 and τ2, and the activation energy EA. The test and analysis results described in the paper will allow better interpretation of the results of diagnostic tests of transformers with solid insulation built on NOMEX® 910 paper, in which mineral oil was replaced with synthetic ester as a result of the upgrade.
