Dielectric-breakdown tests of water at 6 MV

EGG published 30 January 2009)We have conducted dielectric-breakdown tests on water subject to a single unipolar pulse. The peakvoltages used for the tests range from 5.8 to 6.8 MV; the effective pulse widths range from 0.60 to 1:1 s;and the effective areas tested range from 1:8 10
