Partial Discharges Characteristics in Oil Shale of Various Deposits

Abstract:

Attention to oil shale processing as unconventional energy source grows significantly. Electrical discharge phenomena application allows creating new efficient technology. Dynamics of PD basic characteristics of voltage in oil shale is described in this paper. Thermodestruction with abnormally high rate is occurred and caused by PD activity. Critical PD incept under low electrical intensity due to oil shale porosity, anisotropy and heterogeneity. PD induce treeing with following electrothermal breakdown. Organic content has influence on electrical discharges phenomena in oil shale. Therefore, the detailed study of PD, treeing and breakdown in oil shale allows developing an efficient method of inferior solid fossil fuels processing.
