Visualization of Electromagnetic Waves Emitted from Partial Discharge using the Constrained Interpolation Profile (CIP) Method

The constrained interpolation profile method (CIP) is used in order to visualize the electromagnetic (EM) waves emitted from partial discharge (PD) for understanding the physical mechanisms. In this paper, the PD current is numerically obtained by the total amount of charge and the rise time. Numerical results show that the CIP is useful for visualizing the generation and the propagation of the EM waves emitted form the PD current.
