feszültségfelhalmozódás

Feszültségfelhő, a Hungarian term, translates to "voltage cloud" in English. It describes a phenomenon observed in electrical engineering and physics, particularly in high-voltage equipment or during electrical discharges. The term refers to a region of space where electric potential gradients are significant, leading to the ionization of the surrounding medium, often air. This ionization can manifest as visible phenomena like corona discharge or, in more extreme cases, arcing. The "cloud" aspect relates to the diffuse and often irregularly shaped nature of these regions where the electric field strength is sufficiently high to induce electrical breakdown. Understanding feszültségfelhő is crucial for designing safe and reliable electrical systems, as it helps predict potential points of failure and energy loss. Factors influencing the formation and extent of a feszültségfelhő include the geometry of the conductors, the presence of insulating materials, atmospheric conditions like humidity and pressure, and the applied voltage level. In practical applications, designers aim to minimize or control these regions to prevent unintended electrical activity and ensure efficient operation of electrical apparatus.
