This paper is a study on the optimal microdroplet generation conditions in indirect charging electrostatic spraying. Unlike the direct charging method, which applies power to the nozzle, the indirect charging method applies power to the discharge electrode between the nozzle and the collection electrode. Therefore, an electrically simplified system can be obtained by minimizing the insulation part a stable spray pattern can be obtained with a wide spray angle, and a stable spray pattern can be obtained with a wide spray angle. To conduct the study, an indirect charging type electrostatic spray visualization system was constructed and the static characteristics of the microdroplets were analyzed through image processing of the spray shape of the microdroplets. The total number of microdroplets and the number of microdroplets per power consumption are confirmed according to the changes in the distance between the discharge electrode and the collection electrode, the flow rate, and the applied voltage, which affect the generation of microdroplets, and using this, the optimal generation conditions are derived and the corresponding microdroplet size distribution was analyzed. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that the optimal generation condition was at a flow rate of 15 to 20 mL/min and a voltage of -22.5 to -25 kV in terms of the number of microdroplets, and at a flow rate of 15 to 20 mL/min and a voltage of -20 kV in terms of energy consumption efficiency.

This study has been performed to develop an efficient electrocharged scrubber. To improve collection efficiency of the scrubber, electric-charger was installed at the forefront of the packed crossflow scrubbers, and an experiment of changing discharge electrode shape and fluctuating electric field strength was undertaken. After using a light-oil boiler for generation of particles in the about 80% weight of submicron size particles was exhausted. Collection characteristics of the electrocharged scrubber were similar to those of two-stage electrostatic precipitator. In this study the collection efficiency of submicron size particles has been much improved, compared with the previous ones. In an experiment of changing discharge electrode and electric field strength, a needle-spike shape wire electrode showed a higher collection efficiency than round shape wire. The collection efficiency becomes increased with an increase of electric field strength.

Electrodeless fluorescent lamp exhibit two modes of operation: a low density mode in which the power is capacitively coupled to the plasma and which is known as the E-mode, and a higher density mode which is an inductive discharge known as the H-mode. The transition between these two(E to H) mode exhibits hysteresis. It is observed that transition currents change at different frequencies and hysteresis exists not only between the starting and minimum maintaining currents of the electromagnetic mode (H mode) discharge but also between the starting and minimum maintaining currents of the electrostatic mode (E mode) discharge. Hysteresis effect can be important role in dimming system.

We investigated the amount of the toxic gases emitted from the Electrostatic Precipitators(ESPs), which are currently used as the indoor air cleaners. The existing wire-to-plate(WTP) and neddle-to-plate(NTP) types of ESP designs are considered as the experimental corona dischargers. Using the voltage, the polarity of wire, the number of needles of NTP as the input variables, we studied the generation characteristics of ozone and $NO_{x}$ and the particle removal efficiency in the ESPs. As the results, we found out that the concentration of ozone, $NO_{2}$ and $NO_{x}$ is increased with increasing the voltage and the number of needles, but the amount of NO is decreased. And we observed that the generation rates of ozone and $NO_{x}$ are mainly related with the corona region through the photographs. Finally the experimental results showed that the particle removal efficiency of ESP with WTP type charger is more superior to that with NTP type chargers at the same voltage.

Effect of electrostatic and inertial forces on the pre-charged particle deposition was theoretically and experimentally studied by introducing the inertia impactor subjected to an electric field. To derive the analytic solution, we assumed that a flow was an ideal stagnation flow, a particle had saturation charges, and the electric field within the test section was uniform. On the other hand, $Al_2O_3$ particle groups were used as the test particles, which mean sizes were $1{\mu}m$, $3{\mu}m$, and $5{\mu}m$. To measure the deposition efficiency, the light scattering method was used. The results showed that the deposition efficiency was minimized at a certain nozzle velocity as increasing the nozzle velocity, only if the electric force was applied. As the electric field strength increased, $Stk_{50}{^{1/2}}$ was decreased, and its decreasing rate was reduced with increasing the flow velocity. Moreover the existence of electric field was against the cut-off performance of the inertia impactor.

The ionic wind formed in a nonuniform electric field has been recognized to have a significant effect on particle collection in an electrostatic precipitator(ESP). Under normal operating conditions the effect of ionic wind is not pronounced. However, as the flow velocity becomes smaller, the ionic wind becomes pronounced and induces secondary flow, which has a significant influence on the flow field and the particle collecting efficiency. In this paper, experiments for investigating the effect of secondary flow on collection efficiencies were carried out by changing the flow velocities in 0.2-0.7m/s and the applied voltages in 9-11kV/cm. The particle size distributions and concentrations are measured by DMA and CNC. To analyze the experimental results, numerical analysis of electric filed in ESP was carried out. It shows that particle collection is influenced by two independent dimensionless numbers, $Re_{ehd}\;and\;Re_{flow}$ not by $N_{ehd}$ alone. When $Re_{flow}$, decreases for constant $Re_{ehd}$, the secondary flow prohibits the particle collection. But when $Re_{ehd}$ increases for constant $Re_{flow}$, it enhances the particle collection by driving the particles into the collection region.

MgO thin films were deposited using $Mg(tmhd)_2$ as a precursor dissolved in a solvent by electrostatic spray pyrolysis. When a pure tetra hydro furan was used as a solvent, a large number of particles appeared on the MgO thin film surface due to homogeneous nucleation. However, by adding 1-butyl alcohol or 1-octyl alcohol to THF, homogeneous nucleation was restricted and the number density of the large particles was also drastically reduced. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the MgO films had a (100) preferred orientation regardless of the type of solvents used. Characterization using Fourier Transformed-Infrared and spectroscopic photometer revealed that the crystallized MgO thin films on the glass substrate had a high optical transmittance (> 85 %) in the visible range. Discharge characteristics of MgO thin films deposited by ESP method on an alternating-current plasma display panel were compared with a MgO thin film prepared by reactive radio-frequency planar magnetron sputtering.

The Electrostatic Inkjet system has many applications in cost and time effective manufacturing of printed electronics like RFIDs, OLEDs and flexible displays etc. This paper presents pneumatic ink supply system for an electrohydrodynamic deposition (EHD) setup for the precise pressure control to produce a small amount of discharge at the end of the capillary. The meniscus shape depends upon the applied pneumatic pressure to the ink supply system. Furthermore, this paper also compares meniscus shapes at different applied pneumatic pressures. It is concluded that patterning of constant line-width can be achieved better by controlling the meniscus shape using this technique.

Even if smoke, fumes, mist or dust particles are removed by electrostatic precipitators (ESPs), the occurrence of ozone, which is harmful to human body, has to be severely restricted in the indoor environments of hospitals, offices, and workshops. Therefore, the two-stage ESP generating positive corona at the ionizer is typically used because it creates less ozone than the two-stage ESP generating negative corona at the ionizer. In order to predict the collection performance and the optimal design of the two-stage ESP applied to positive high-voltage, particle concentration is experimentally investigated in this paper. In addition, particle motion within the collector section is also numerically analyzed. The positive corona discharge current of the ionizer is found to be affected by the applied voltage in the collector section but less so by the particle concentration. Particle concentration shows a minimum near the high voltage electrode of the collector section. The minimum value of the collection efficiency is almost proportional to gas velocity. When the collector length decreases, the minimum value of the collection efficiency increases. Charged particles entering the collector region are linearly deflected towards the grounded plate by an electric field. From the above experimental and numerical results, two empirical equations on the concentration ratio and the collection efficiency are derived, and are in good agreement with the experimental data.
