  • Abstract
    An electronic power capacitor system capable of operating at >300°C was developed that is based on commercial mica paper-aluminum foil in pressurized N2. Single windings were used to develop an effective processing and conditioning procedure. Evaluation was based on life tests at 325-335°C with applied DC voltage stress. A full-size, 2.4 μF unit, consisting of a stack of 7 windings was life tested at with 2.0 kVdc applied.
