On this study, we developed the electrostatic eliminator for charged particles in manufacturing process. The characteristics of the electrostatic eliminator were investigated, which is two kinds. The first one is Electrical Corona Discharged Type Ionizer. The second one is Photo Ionizer in using soft X-ray. From the experiment, we have obtained the following results. In case of Electrical Corona Discharged Ionizer, neutralization efficiency of charged particles were approximately saturated to 98% over 6.0kV, but as it is non-explosion proof, can not be used in flammable particle treatment process. While in case of photo Ionizer in using soft X-Ray, neutralization efficiency of charged particles were approximately 95%, and more its structure is explosion proof, could be used in flammable particle treatment process.

There are many methods to move or reduce the static electricity which often causes disasters in Industry, etc. The methods may Include grounding of a potentially-charged body, use of antistatic materials, humidification of an atmosphere, use of static electricity eliminators. Among those methods, the one utilizing antistatic materials is widely used in the industrial fields due to its effectiveness and inexpectiveness. In Korea, safety regulations and technical standards are not sufficient for applying to industrial fields as electrostatic disaster prevention measures due to the shortage of practically verified and reliable data. The propose of this paper is to examine the electrostatic characteristics of the antistatic materials and non-antistatic ordinary materials under the various conditions of different temperature and humidity.

We investigated molecular polarity by using theoretical means and comparing empirical solvent polarity. Our approach employed electrostatic potentials at the molecular surface calculated by density functional methods. A number of molecular descriptors related to molecular polarities were computed from molecular surface electrostatic potentials. Among computed molecular descriptors, the most positive electrostatic potential provided the best correlation with the empirical solvent polarities. A regression equation was developed in order to predict molecular polarities of molecules whose experimental solvent polarities were unknown. The new regression equations were utilized in estimating solvent polarities of cubane derivatives which are considered important precusors of high-energy density meterials.

NASA/DLR Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission, which consists of two co-orbiting low altitude satellites, is to measure the Earth gravity field with unprecedented accuracy. Its key instruments include inter-satellite ranging systems and three-axis accelerometers. For the preliminary design and requirements analysis, extensive instrument simulation models are developed. These modeling techniques and orbit-gravity field estimation techniques are described.

An apparatus capable of melting and solidifying various materials containerlessly in high vacuum via electrostatic levitation (ESL) has been developed for finding materials with new or improved properties and further building a database for processing materials in microgravity. Containerless solidification of semiconductors, metals, and alloys such as Si, Zr, Nb, Mo, $V_3Si$, and boron carbides has been carried out to test how various materials at how high temperatures can be processed by ESL. The materials in levitation became spherical at melting by their own surface tensions which were ideal for measuring intrinsic thermophysical properties of materials in the liquid state. Multiple cycles of melting and cooling were reproducibly repeated and radiative cooling curves were recorded.

In order to prevent fire and explosion due to the electrostatic discharge at the Gas Station etc. This result will be applied to standard in the future. Wearing the non-electrostatic removing wear, Charged voltage of human body is 3,980V(MIE is approximately 0.79mJ). There is a possibility of fire explosion because the MIE of LP gas is 0.25mJ. In accordance with using period(whasing times), Charged voltage is shown that propensity is increased. Electrostatic charge amount is upper standard($0.6{\mu}$C) of the hazard of electrostatic removing wear. There is a possibility of fire and explosion. Therefore, countermeasure and management are needed about gas station worker.

In this paper, it is studied the electrostatic discharge In Insulating oil for the purpose of the technical control of the streaming electrification resulted from the interface between an insulating liquid and a solid. The streaming current increases exponentially with flow rate and In region of lower than 50［$^{\circ}C$］but decreases at higher than the same temperature. The phenomena of electrostatic discharge appear at an interface between measuring tank and insulating oil when the seven sheets of gauzes are inserted in electrification apparatus. And those of partial or surface discharge are shown when eight sheets are inserted.

The static electricity by thinner flow and discharge energy is investigated experimentally for the purpose of preventing the electrostatic discharge and damage. Test system for evaluating streaming electrification consists of a teflon pipe, a reservoir tank a pump, flowmeters and an electrometer. When dielectric liquid flows through a pipe from one vessel to another, the potential difference generated in the collecting vessel is due to the accumulation of charges. These charges result from the convection of a part of the electrical double layer existing in the tube at the contact between the liquid and the inner wall. When the fluid velocity increases, the electric current increases proportionally. The charging current and accumulated charges by streaming electrification at the thinner velocity of 40cm/s are measured a range of 5 nA and $0.27{\mu}C$ respectively. This amount of static discharge energy generated by streaming electrification is enough to ignite flammable solvent. Therefore surface electric potential should decrease by using electrostatic shielding and ground.

The discharge energy by electrostatic discharge of the charged human body is calculated under the assumption that the stored charge is dissipated completely. However, it is well-known that the charge is slightly remained after electrostatic discharge. Therefore, The Rompe-Weisel model of the discharge analysis, which has somewhat more of a physical justification than the conventional energy equation, is proposed. It is proposed that the electrical conductivity of the arc should be proportional to the energy density transferred to it by Ohmic dissipation. For the electrostatic discharge energy analysis, the Rompe-Weisel model was compared by quasi static analysis. As a consequence, a study on a reliable energy evaluation based on simulation models during electrostatic discharge is carried out in this paper and is adopted to estimate the explosion hazards of flammable gases.
