2. In this context of changing and challenging market requirements, Gas Insulated
Substation(GIS) has found a broad range of applications in power systems for
more than two decades because of its high reliability, easy maintenance and small
ground space requirement etc. SF6 has been of considerable technological interest
as an insulation medium in GIS because of its superior insulating properties, high
dielectric strength at relatively low pressure and its thermal and chemical stability.
SF6 is generally found to be very sensitive to field perturbations such as those
caused by conductor surface imperfections and by conducting particle
contaminants. The purpose of this paper is to develop techniques, which will
formulate the basic equations that will govern the movement of metallic particles
like aluminum, copper in a coated as well as uncoated busduct.
