electric field and potential distribution

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi

I have been working on a 3D (AC/DC) model of a insulator, and I am trying to verify the uniform potential and field distribution along the insulator surface. I apply 33Kv voltage at HV end and other end set as ground potential (zero).


In the result of electric filed distribution over the surface of the insulator not in proper distribution.

That's Electric field round the HV end shows more or less zero field. why? I attach my model image.

In this image (result) both HV and ground end has same field, why/

any one help me.

Hi Murugan,

I designed the high voltage insulator as well but in 2 dimensions.I need some advise from you on how constructing the sheds in COMSOL as I have no idea where to start.


Herewith the attachment of drawing.

Many thanks

Regards
