Abstract
A new parameter, pressure, has been introduced into study of the electrical properties of polymers, in particular into the thermal breakdown theory for modelling of the breakdown field Fb variations of high-density polyethylene versus pressure. Theoretical Fb values, determined by numerical calculation of the fundamental heat balance equation and the analytical expression of the conductivity, are compared with experimental results obtained in the pressure range 50-500 bar. Good agreement was observed in this comparison.Keywords
