  • Abstract
    The aim of our work is to understand better the mechanisms of flow electrification due to oil circulating inside a rectangular pressboard channel. This research has been done because of technical incidents in power transformers in which oil is flowing past pressboard with a velocity in the range of several meters per second. A possible explanation of the wall current observed along the channel is proposed
