Abstract
The electric field distributions on or near the electrodes or spacer boundaries are extremely
significant from the practical point of view and hence it necessitates the simulation of the
boundaries with high degree of accuracy. This paper highlights an efficient method of simulating a
complex electrode-spacer configuration used in gas-insulated systems (GIS) and focuses the
accuracy of the simulation.

where (x, y, z) are the co-ordinates of the point with
respect to the co-ordinate axes and ( x t , y t , z t ) are
the new co-ordinates of the points after adding the
offsets Shiftx, Shifty and Shiftz to the coordinates of the point.

An integrated software has been developed which is
capable of simulating conventional as well as nonconventional geometries as cited in this paper and then
calculates E-Field by using indirect BEM.

8.1 Significance of the Notations used in
Fig. 9:
n: Number of divisions of the circumference of the
circle of radius rmin.
n1: Number of truncations of the edge of the disc.
n2: Number of divisions of the width w.
n3: Number of divisions of each of the space of width
w1.
h: value of each smallest division in which the width
w is divided.
h1: value of each smallest division in which the
circumference of the circle of radius rmin is divided.
phimin: angle made by rmin with X-axis before it
rotates about an axis passing through the center of the
disc and perpendicular to the plane of the disc.
phimax: maximum angle through which rmin rotates
about an axis passing through the center of the disc
and perpendicular to the plane of the disc.
phi1: angle through which r[i] of each section of
width w1 rotates from the axis of that section
within the span.
theta[i]: angle made by the axis of each section with
X-axis with theta[4] = 3600 + theta[1].
angle1: value of each smallest division into which the
span of each r[i] is divided.
xrot, yrot, zrot are the rotations given to the coordinate axes.
xtrans, ytrans, ztrans are the translations of the coordinate axes.
axis: axis of each truncation i.e. OA, OB & OC
