  • Sandy and dusty weather condition often occurs in the high altitude areas of China, which may greatly influence the corona generated radio interference (RI) characteristics of the bundle conductors of 750 kV AC power transmission lines. Corona generated RI of the conductors of the 750 kV AC power transmission lines used in practice is measured by EMI receiver with a coupling circuit and a coupling capacitor connected between the high voltage side and the earth side in fine and sandy and dusty condition. The measuring frequency is 0.5 MHz, and the quasi-peak detection is used. RI excitation function is calculated based on the corona RI current measured by the EMI receiver. Corona generated RI characteristics were analyzed from sand concentration and sand particle size. The test result shows that the corona generated RI excitation function is influenced by the sandy and dusty condition. Corona discharge of the conductors is more serious in sandy and dusty condition with an ultraviolet (UV) detector. Corona generated RI excitation function increases with the increase of sand concentration and also increases with the increase of particle size.

  • Measurerments of ultrasonic signals caused by corona discharges were perforrred by using an ultrasonic meeasurerment technique to analyze the deve1qxrent states of coronas in a high-voltage power apparatus. We also examined the relationship between discharge magnitude and ultrasonic pulse number to diagnose the deterioration of electrical insulation by corona discharges. From these results, it was found that ultrasonic signals due to corona discharges can be firstly detected at the peak value of positive polarities prior to the breakdown voltages, and the magnitude of ultrasonic signals was closely related to the current pulses by the corona discharges when ac voltages were gradually raised, and it appeared that ultrasonic pulse number was proportional to discharge magnitude. Attenuation, tirre-delaying and directivity charocteristics of ultrasonic signals propagated to air by using ultrasonic oscillation and receiving systems are feJXlrt.ed as a basic data of ultrasonic measurements in out-door HV apparatus.aratus.

  • Starting from the distribution transformer, the insulation oil for the oil immersed power transformer is being used to convert the vegetable oil from the existing mineral oil. Vegetable oil is better in temperature characteristics and insulation performance, is not toxic, and has better biodegradable characteristic than that of mineral oil. In order to investigate the corona inception voltage and dieclectic charateristics of the two insulating oils, three oil immersed transformers using mineral oil and vegetable oil were made and thermal cyclic aged. In this paper, the changes in the corona discharge inception voltage, chemical and electrical properties of the two sampled insulating oils from the transformers had been studied.

  • The audible noise produced by corona discharge in high voltage transmission lines is the most important line design consideration. In this paper, more accurate and useful formulas for predicting the A-weighted audible noise during heavy and light rain in alternative current (AC) transmission lines are proposed through comparison with the existing formulas. The proposed formulas are developed by the applications of evolutionary computations (ECs) to audible noise data base from long-term measurement.

  • In display such as LCD, LED, and AMOLED or semiconductor related industries are required to have static ionizer in order to produce reliable goods. The most general type of ionization is called, "corona discharge" that has a slight chances to generate unequal and unstable amount of each +/- ion to the target object. Then, the ionization performance will drastically decrease and end up with quality deterioration problem. continually "A study on the improvement of the performance of pulsed AC ion bar(1)", we have studied consecutive study to improve the current issue via appling "partition wall" at air nozzle surrounding. The results were that the charge decay time and the ion balance was maintained the satisfied range that was within 5 second and ${\pm}50$ V for a 180 days period of time. In additions, the contamination status on the electrode surface was investigated for a 180 days. The little particles was deposited on the electrode surface.

  • The occurrence of fires under transmission lines is responsible for a great number of power line outages. In this paper, the ac flashover voltages and the corona onset voltages of a needle-plane electrode gap of vertical arrangement in the presence of flame were investigated. We also observed the corona discharge current and variation of shapes in flame with increasing the applied voltages. We found that the corona onset voltages and the flashover voltages were drastically decreased with the position of flames and gap length of electrodes, and observed that the deflection or fluctuation phenomena in the shape of flames.

  • In Display such as LCD, LED, and AMOLED or semiconductor related industries are required to have static ionizer in order to produce reliable goods since the ionizer can create balanced ion that is delivered to producing goods to minimize electrical damages when manufacturing. However, the most general type of ionization is called, "Corona Discharge" that has a slight chances to generate unequal and unstable amount of each +/- ion to the target object. Then, the ionization performance will drastically decrease and end up with quality deterioration problem. In this research, our objective to resolve the current issue via applying "Coupling Condenser" on each counter electrodes of Corona discharging type ionizer. The result is that the ion balance was maintained the satisfied range that is within +/-100V when we changed the duty ratio of the High Voltage of Pulse AC about 40 ~ 70%. In addition, when levelling the High Voltage of Pulse AC, the ion balance holds the range within +20 ~ 0V. Even though we have tested the same experiment for a year, we have seen the range changes roughly ${\pm}50V$.

  • In this paper, the effect of magnetic field was measured on NOx(NO+NO2) removal and consumption power for wire-plate plasma reactor with magnetic field applied to electric field vertically. NOx of the simulated diesel engine flue gas were removed by the corona discharge generated by DC, AC and Pulsed voltages in wire-plate reactor. Consumption power increased with discharge voltage. However, when magnetic field was applied to electric field vertically, consumption power slightly decreased. NOx removal rate and arc transition voltage for plasma reactor with magnetic field were higher than those for plasma reactor without magnetic field. Consumption power decreased, however NOx removal significantly increased, when water vapour bubbled by dry air was put into simulated flue gas.
