Abstract :
This first part in a two-part series examines the test facilities available at the University at Buffalo, Buffalo, New York. The facilities have been set up to study-the effect of electrical, thermal, and radiation, prestressing upon the physical properties of dielectric materials proposed for use in high voltage energy storage and transfer systems.
