The Application of the Correlative Analysis and the Regression Function for Determining Correlations οf the Measurement Results of Acoustic Emission Generated by Partial Discharges

The subject matter of this paper is connected with development of the assessment methods of results obtained at measurements of partial discharges occurring in insulation systems of power transformers using the acoustic emission method. The paper presents the results connected with determining correlation between partial discharge generation voltage and selected descriptors characterizing the emitted signals of acoustic emission in the frequency domain. Authors use the selected descriptors as comparative criteria for recognition of the basic partial discharge forms that may occur in paper-oil insulation of power transformers. The correlation coefficient and regression function were used to determine the correlation degree between the variables under study.
