Abstract :
A stochastic model of streamer propagation in dielectric liquids was developed. A simple approximate model is proposed that enables one to calculate the pressure in a cylindrical channel using the expansion velocity. A three-dimensional model for the simulation of streamer growth was realized which takes into account the first approximation expansion of the streamer channels.
