Abstract

Proposes a novel empirical multifactor stress model which involves an additional mechanical (vibrational or fatigue) stress. The model is based on data obtained on epoxy-mica-insulated high-voltage generator coils. The possible degradation mechanisms under combined stress are discussed, highlighting those under fatigue stress based on Miner's cumulative damage concept. It is concluded that the empirical model presented here can be employed to estimate the insulation life under service conditions with a reasonable degree of accuracy.
