Controlling Factors of Degassing in Crosslinked Polyethylene Insulated Cables

Here, we analyze the degassing process of a byproduct (methane) formed during the peroxide-induced crosslinking of polyethylene. A diffusion model based on Fick’s law is used to obtain the controlling factors of degassing in a crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) insulated power cable (132 kV w...
