High Voltage Vacuum Insulation

This book explores the technological advances that have flowed from the major leap in our fundamental understanding of the subject. Following on from the Editor's earlier book High Voltage Vacuum Insulation: The Physical Basis (Academic Press London/NY 1981) this text provides a modern 'working manual' which concentrates on the practical aspects and applications with contributions from internationally-recognised experts in the field.
