A bushing is very important because it must supply the high voltage to the power equipment. Generally, the surface of bushing is contaminated with rain, dust, salt and others. A bushing with contaminations at air are serious problem in insulation. Therefore, it is important to understand the inspection and diagnoses of the safety. The ultra-violet rays(UV) camera has attracted interest from the view point of easy judgement. In this paper, we will report on the corona discharge characteristics on bushing model with contaminations. Also, UV images of discharge in air are analyzed using prototype UV camera of Korea. These results are studied at both AC and DC voltage under a non-uniform field.

$SO_2$and CO gas removal characteristics of a wire-to-cylinder type nonthermal discharge plasma reactor in various applied voltage (-dc, ac, fast rising pulse and high frequency pulse) and a crossed dc magnetic field have been investigated. The experiment has been emphasized on the oxidizing characteristics of $SO_2$ and CO gas by $O_3$ and the applying of a crossed magnetic field, which would induce the cyclotronic and drift motions of electrons making the residual time longer in the removal airgap space. And it also would enhance the energy of electrons and the electrophysicochemical actions to remove the pollutant gases effectively. It is found thatthe corona onset voltage and the breakdown voltage were decreased with increasing the crossed magnetic field and decrease initial fed $SO_2$and CO concentration. As a result, a higher ozone generation and $SO_2$ and CO gas removal rate of 20[%] can be obtained with -dc, ac and fast rising pulse corona discharges in the crossed dc current-induced magnetic field. But high frequency pulse didn't show effect in applying of a crossed magnetic field.

In this paper. an experimental study, for method of increasing the efficiency of electrostatic precipitator for the collection of submicron-sized particles has been studied. All AC electric field was used to induce agglomeration of bipolory charged Particles. .4 bipolar AC-agglomeration system. consisted with a multineedle-mesh discharge system with a control grid, was proposed and investigated. Systematic experiments were carried out to investigate the agglomeration ratio of the AC-agglomeration system as a function of the different grid spacings and grid resistances for the submicron particles generated from liquid prorhane gas burning. The agglomeration ratios, which indicate the particle numbers before and after agglomeration of the test particles in number concentration base, were found to be 0.87, 1.80, 3.86, 9.50 and, 11.00 times for the particle sizes of 0.3. 0.5, 0.7, 1.0, and 2.0$\mu$m at applied voltage of 3.5kV, respectively which showed that the fine particle numbers were decreased while the larger particle numbers were increase greatly.

In this paper, the discharge image of NO particles wire-cylinder type electrode in the discharge reactor where AC dielectric barrier type corona discharge occurred and horizontal and vertical signal intensity at each flourescence emission during discharge and the horizontal and vertical signal strength of NO particles at flourescence emission wavelength band[236[nm], 247[nm]], were measured were measured by ICCD Camera. In addition discharge images and signal intensities in accordance with discharge time were measured to figure out the discharge mechanism. It was found that the strongest horizontal and vertical signal intensity of NO particles were observed at 247[nm] band, but no big difference in the horizontal and vertical signal intensity in accordance with discharge time was seen. In particular, the phenomenon image occuring inside the discharge reactor and wavelength ware able to be carried based on the measured data.

This paper describes to access the insulation deterioration condition of the stator windings in three large turbine generators. Nondestructive tests have been carried out on stand-still generators which have been in service for 2 to 30 years. In most cases these tests include ac current increase rate($\Delta$I), delta tan delta( ${\Delta}tan{\delta}$), and maximum partial discharge(Qm). Gen. 2 show that the $tan{\delta}$ is higher than other two generators in the $tan{\delta}$-voltage curve. Partial discharge(PD) patterns were observed internal, corona and treeing discharges in large turbine generators. The PD tests were confirmed the correlation between discharge patterns and the kinds of defects.

Electrical discharges may occur in gas, liquid as well as solid insulating materials. This paper describes the investigation results on the discharges in air, silicone oil and low density polyethylene (LDPE) using needle plane electrode system under AC voltage of 50 Hz. The experimental results showed that for discharge in air (corona), discharge pulses were concentrated around the peak of applied voltage at negative half cycle. For silicone oil positive as well as negative discharges were observed which concentrated around the peak of applied voltage. The positive pulse number was smaller but the magnitude was higher than that of negative discharge. Discharges in void took place at wider range of phase of applied voltage. The unbalance in pulse number and magnitude similar to that of oil discharges were observed. For electrical treeing in LDPE, the discharges were spread before the zero cross of the applied voltage up to the peak at both positive and negative half cycles. The discharge pulse sequence analysis indicated that the PD occurrence in air, oil and void were strongly affected by the magnitude of applied voltage. However, for electrical treeing it was observed that the discharge occurrence was strongly affected by the time derivative of the applied voltage (dv/dt).

In this experiment, an attempt to use the sludge pellets as catalyst for NO removal from simulated gas is experimentally investigated by using cylinder type reactor. An experimental investigation has been conducted for NO concentration of 50[ppm], 100[ppm], 200[ppm] balanced with air. a gas flow rate of 5[1/min].

In this paper, the effect of magnetic field was measured on NOx removal characteristics for wire-plate plasma reactor with magnetic field applied to electric field vertically. NOx from simulated diesel engine flue gas are decomposed by the corona discharge of DC, AC and Pulsed voltages in wire-plate reactor. Consumption power increased with increasing discharge voltage. When magnetic field was applied to electric field vertically, consumption power decreased. NOx removal rate and arc transition voltage of plasma reactor with magnetic field were higher than those of plasma reactor without magnetic field.

$SF_6$ gas has been widely used the gas insulated transmission line, gas insulated transformer and gas insulated substation and Polyester film used as the turn insulation with other material. $SF_6$ gas has been actively studied in domestic and foreign countries. In general, when dielectric surface electric field exceed any electric field strength on air, corona discharge is occurred from the dielectric surface. This paper presents the insulation strength of turn insulation of $SF_6$-PET film studied under application of AC voltage, constitute of the plane to plane with PET Film. The results obtained in experimental are summarized that Partial Discharge Initial Voltage(PDIV) of turn insulation depend on gas pressure, but Breakdown Voltage(BDV) did not depend on gas pressure.
