Thank you Gyorgy. I want to simulate voltage breakdown in liquid insulation systems with Comsol.

Comparison of Positive Streamers in Liquid Dielectrics with and without Nanoparticles Simulated with Finite-Element Software

Solved!

Hi Ricardo,

I'm trying to simulate dielectric breakdown in COMSOL for SF6 gas. I had a look at your paper and it looks very similar to what i want to do. Do you have any advice on how to start and how to do it? The only experience i have in COMSOL is simulating electric field on my electrodes using stationary electrostatics.

Hi Loizos, I kindly recommend you to check thesis from O'Sullivan, Jadidian and Hwang. This contribution could be of help Conference Paper Positive streamer simulation in nanodielectric fluids with C...

It is not possible to obtain the streamer evolution using stationary electrostatics. Regards
