Specialized research on high-voltage insulator wetting behavior and contamination flashover
Few books address the wetting characteristics and contamination behavior of high-voltage insulator under varying environmental conditions. Theory and Application of Dynamic Wetting of High Voltage Insulator consolidates a decade of research published in IEEE Transactions and IET Journals into a single authoritative reference. Written by Tsinghua University researchers with extensive IEEE leadership roles, this volume connects fundamental wetting dynamics with practical field applications.
The book examines contamination wetting behavior mechanisms and their impact on insulator performance through on-site examples and engineering applications. Critical findings for ultra-high voltage engineering address contamination flashover prevention, dynamic environmental factors, and power system reliability improvement strategies applicable to modern transmission infrastructure.
Key topics include:
- Wetting characteristics of high-voltage external insulation with detailed analysis of contamination behavior under varying environmental conditions
- Performance and application of insulation materials for reliable operation under complex and harsh service conditions
- Advanced monitoring, assessment, and management approaches for external insulation condition and operational risk
- Fundamental principles of high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage engineering relevant to modern power transmission systems
- Impacts of climate variability and extreme environments on insulation performance and corresponding mitigation strategies
For power system engineers, high-voltage equipment researchers, and graduate students in electrical engineering, this reference provides specialized knowledge previously scattered across journal literature. It delivers both theoretical foundations and practical methodologies for addressing external insulation challenges in modern power transmission systems.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Books Puddle, Woodside, New York, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
