This paper proposes a numerical approach to predict the critical flashover voltages of air gaps under lightning impulses. For an air gap, the impulse voltage waveform features and electric field features are defined to characterize its energy storage status before the initiation of breakdown. These features are taken as the input parameters of the predictive model established by support vector machine (SVM). Given an applied voltage range, the golden section search method is used to compute the prediction results efficiently. This method was applied to predict the critical flashover voltages of rod-rod, rod-plane and sphere-plane gaps over a wide range of gap lengths and impulse voltage waveshapes. The predicted results coincide well with the experimental data, with the same trends and acceptable errors. The mean absolute percentage errors of 6 groups of test samples are within 4.6%, which demonstrates the validity and accuracy of the predictive model. This method provides an effectual way to obtain the critical flashover voltage and might be helpful to estimate the safe clearances of air gaps for insulation design.

To increase the luminance and luminous efficacy in the discharge for alternating current plasma display panel (ac PDP), the increment of Xe contents and long discharge gap are necessary. However, the driving voltage and the cost of driving circuit increases in the high Xe contents and long discharge path condition. In this paper, a long gap ITO hump electrode (LGH) model for discharge cells of ac PDP is evaluated in the various Xe contents($5{\sim}20%$). The discharge voltage of LGH structure is lower about 30V than that of ITa reference structure with same main discharge gap. The LGH structure has lower power consumption and higher luminance than those of reference structure, respectively. Also, the luminous efficacy of LGH structure is higher about 20% than that of ITO reference structure in the 20% Xe contents.

In this paper, we have describes about the reationships between a core gap and a feeding velocity, an amplitude and the core gap by the exciting forc, the parts movement and a bowl materials, and the feeding veocity and the parts in the parts feeder. The main results as compared with the stainless and the aluminum materials are as follow : 1) The mean feeding velocity by bowl material shown more relative proportion in the STS304 to the exciting voltage than the C%AV 2) IN the exciting voltage, the response time for the aluminum material is slow, but the stainless is sensibility. 3) An exciting voltage is rised by an increase of the weight, but an amplitude has been in the range between 23 .mu.m through 40 .mu. m.

This paper presents the see-saw type RF MEMS switch based on a single crystalline silicon structure with narrow gap vertical comb. Low actuation voltage and high isolation are key features to be solved in electrostatic RF MEMS switch design. Since these parameters in conventional parallel plate RF MEMS switch designs are in trade-off relationship, both requirements cannot be met simultaneously. In the vertical comb design, however, the actuation voltage is independent of the vertical separation distance between the contact electrodes. Therefore, the large separation gap between contact electrodes is implemented to achieve high isolation. We have designed and fabricated RF MEMS switch which has 46dB isolation at 5GHz, 0.9dB insertion loss at 5GHz and 40V actuation voltage.

The characteristic of flashover electric discharge has been brought to light in this paper for the situation in which the space and creeping gaps are laid out in series. The result of this study has disclosed the facts that the over all flashover characteristics have three kind of features such as unilateral increase after increase, and increase after decrease in compliance with varied layout method and relative magnitude of gap length, and accordingly there exist a ratio among the magnitudes of gap length and a proper layort method through which the over all flashover voltage reaches the highest. Also involved with this study is the theoretic analysis of flashover characteristics even in the case of creeping electric discharge from hand tip of the gauge, where the over all value of flashover voltage can be estimated from the peculiar value of flashover voltage and flicker voltage for the space and creeping gap within the extent of 5% error.

This paper is to study on the phenomena that the compound dielectric strength through double layers of air-insulating oil dielectrics is much lower than that of air dielectrics only. the change of the dielectric strength by the variance of air gap depends on the characteristics of air gap discharge and, in case of commercial voltage, the degree of dependance is greeter than in case of direct current voltage.

In this paper, reduction characteristics of the ac flashover voltage in the horizontal air gap of sphere-sphere/needle-needle electrode system were investigated when the combustion flame was present near the high-voltage electrodes. The voltage and current waveforms were measured, when the flashover is occurred, in order to examine the flashover polarity by flame. The reduction characteristics of ac flashover voltage were discussed with the thermal ionization process, the relative air density and the deflection phenomena in the shape of flames that changed by the corona wind and coulomb\`s force. As the results of an experimental investigation, It was found that the reduction of flashover voltages in sphere-sphere system, in comparison with the no-flame case, are 79.9 [%] for k=0, 82.9 [%] for k=0.5, 87.5 [%] for k=1.0, 85.0 [%] for h=0 [cm], 40.8 [%] for h=5 [cm] and 28.2 [%] for h=9 [cm] when ac voltage is applied.

This paper investigated that resonant frequencies of microstrip patch antenna were tunable when piezoelectric materals were used as the antenna substrates. The resonant frequencies of the air-gap antenna using the piezoelectric substrate were able to be controlled by applied AC voltage. The frequency variation of the antenn was great when PZT were applied voltage of the resonant frequency.

Microplasma modes generated in a display cell with an auxiliary electrode were investigated in accordance with various coplanar-gaps and plategaps. At plate-gaps shorter than the coplanar-gap, the mode transition voltage of the auxiliary pulse increased with an increase in the coplanar-gap. At longer plate-gaps, the mode transition voltage of the auxiliary pulse decreased with an increase in the coplanar-gap.
