Q1- What are the various factors which affect Dielectric Strength?
Q2- What are the limitations of Townsend's theory?
Q3- In an experiment in a certain gas it was found that the steady state current is 6 x 108
A at 10 kV at a distance of 0.3 cm between the plane electrodes.
Keeping the field constant and reducing the distance to 0.15 cm results in a current of
6 x 10°A. Calculate Townsend's primary ionization coefficient a
Q4-In an experiment for determining the breakdown voltage of transformer oil, the
following observations were made. Determine the power law between the gap spacing
and the applied voltage of the oil.
Gap spacing (mm)
Bd. voltage (kV)
