Abstract
The electrical characteristics of insulating materials play a key role on the working performance and operation reliability of power equipment. With the rapid development of superconducting technology in recent years,the working temperature of high temperature superconducting power equipment can be controlled around the liquid nitrogen temperature. Due to its excellent dielectric performance and mechanical properties, polyimide have been widely used in power equipment at room temperature. However, polyimide, as a kind of cryogenic insulating materials, is rarely reported at present. Therefore, the study of the insulating characteristics of polyimide at the cryogenic temperatures is of great significance. The DC breakdown property and flashover performance of polyimide are tested around room temperature (300K) and liquid nitrogen temperature (78K). The results show that temperature has some effects on the DC breakdown property and flashover performance of polyimide.
