A numerical simulation for particle collection efficiency in a wire-plate electrostatic precipitator (ESP) has been performed. Method of characteristics and finite differencing method (MOC-FDM) were employed to obtain electric field and space charge density, and lattice boltzmann method (LBM) was used to predict the Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) flow according to the ion convection. Large eddy simulation (LES) was considered for turbulent flow and particle simulation was performed by discrete element method (DEM) which considered field charging, electric force, drag force and wall-collision. One way coupling from FDM to LBM was used with small and low density particle assumption. When the charged particle collided with the collecting plate, particle-wall collision was calculated for re-entertainment effect and the effect of gravity force was considered.

The main purpose of this study is to investigate the collection efficiency characteristics of a cylindrical ESP. To do that, it is necessary to analyze the electric field, gas flow field, and mechanism of particle movement by numerical simulation based on EHD model. For a gas flow field, Navier-Stokes equation involving the electric source term was solved by SIMPLE algorithm. In case of the electric field, the current continuity and electric field equations were solved by S.O.R. method. The analysis of particle movement was performed on the basis of PSI-CELL model from the Lagrangian viewpoint. The results showed that the influence on the gas flow field by the electric field is almost negligible in a cylindrical ESP. The particle drift velocity $V_P$ toward the collection surface is increased continuously by the electrostatic force due to the rise of particle charge as the particle is moving to the flow direction and the particle size becomes larger. The collection efficiency is to quitely higher with the increase of applied voltage for the same particle size, while becomes smaller as the inlet velocity is increased.

The combustion pressure and thrust of aft-igniter were measured to investigate the characteristics of ignition charge. Granule and pellet shape ignition charge of $BKNO_3$ and MTV(Magnesium-Teflon-Viton) were used for igniters. Ignitions with granule charges show abrupt increases of combustion pressure and thrust compared to those of pellet charge. $BKNO_3$ igniter shows higher combustion pressure than MTV igniter due to higher combstion rate. Mg particle size affects the combustion pressure of MTV igniter.

Charge transport phenomena of polyaniline-DBSA/High Impact Polystyrene (PAM-DBSA/HIPS) blends have been studied through an examination of electrical conduction. HIPS used host polymer in the blends and PANI-DBSA obey a space charge limited conduction mechanism and a ohmic conduction mechanism respectively. However, PANI-DBSA/HIPS blends do not obey any classical conduction mechanism. Analysis of conduction mechanism revealed that the charging current of PANI-DBSA/HIPS blends increased with the increase of PANI-DBSA content. This result migrlt be explained by the reduction in the distance between PANI-DBSA particles enabling the charge carriers to migrate from a chain to a neighboring chain via hopping or micro tunneling. It was also found that the charging current of PANI-DBSA/HIPS blends decreased as the temperature was elevated, which is of typical phenomena in metals. It is speculated that the charge transport in PANI-DBSA particle was somewhat constrained due to strong phonon scattering.

The Faraday cup electrode of different size has been developed and evaluated to investigate the diffusion effect of particles by Brownian motion in a particle beam mass spectrometer(PBMS). Particles which focused and accelerated by aerodynamic lens are charged to saturation in an electron beam, and then deflected electrostatically into a Faraday cup detector for measurement of the particle current. The concentration of particles is converted from currents detected by Faraday cup. Measurements of particle current as a function of deflection voltage are combined with measured relationships between particle velocity and diameter, charge and diameter, and mass and diameter, to determine the particle size distribution. The particle currents were measured using 5, 10, 20, 40 mm sized Faraday cup that can be move to one direction by motion shaft. The current difference for each sizes as a function of position was compared to figure out diffusion effect during transport. Polystyrene latex(PSL) 100, 200 nm sized standard particles were used for evaluation. The measurement using 5 mm sized Faraday cup has the highest resolution in a diffusion distance and the smaller particles had widely diffused.

입상여과는 표준식 정수처리 공정에서 입자물질 제거의 최종공정으로 대부분 사용되고 있다. 따라서 양질의 수돗물을 만들기 위해서는 입상여과에서 높은 수준의 입자물질 제거가 요구되고 있다. 그러나 여과공정에서 모든 입자물질을 제거할 수 없으며, 또한 입자물질의 부착특성은 입자와 용액의 물리화학적 특성에 따라 달라진다. 실험실규모의 여과칼럼과 입경 0.55mm의 유리구슬을 여재로 한 여과실험이 수행되었다. Min-U-Sil 5가 입자물질로 사용되었으며 입자물질을 불안정화하기 위하여 액반을 사용하였다. 운전조건은 표준입상여과와 동일하였으며 여과속도는 5m/h 였다. 입자와 여재가 모두 음의 표면전하를 갖을 경우 작은 표면 전하를 갖는 입자가 여과초기에 여재에 잘 부착되었다. 작은 표면전하를 갖는 입자의 선택적 부착은 유출수의 제타 전위분포를 더 음인 방향으로 이동시켰다. 한편 입자의 표면전하가 양의 값을 갖을 경우는 여과수 입자의 표면전하가 양의 큰 값에서 작은 값으로 변하였는데 이는 입자와 여재사이의 이온전이에 기인하는 것으로 생각된다.

본 논문은 마이크로전극 측정시스템을 사용하여 니켈수소전지의 전극 소재로 사용되고 있는 수산화니켈의 단일 입자에 대해 전기화학적 평가를 수행 하였다. 즉 Carbon fiber 마이크로전극을 수산화니켈 입자 한개 위에 전기적인 접촉을 이루도록 조정하고 전기화학적 평가를 수행하였다. Cyclic Voltammetry 실험 결과 수산화니켈의 산화 환원 반응과 산소 발생 반응(OER)이 명확하게 분리 되고 있음을 확인하였으며, 전위주사속도를 증가 시킬 경우 환원 전하량은 주사 속도에 의존하지 않고 거의 일정한 수치를 보여 주고 있으나, 산화 전하량은 환원 전하량 보다 크고 주사속도 구간에서 부반응인 산소발생이 증가하고 있음을 확인했다. 그리고 Calvanostat에 의한 정전류 충방전 실험의 결과 수산화니켈 단일 입자의 방전용량은 이론용량 289 mAh/g에 근접한 수치(약 250 mAh/g)를 보여 주었으며 또한 Potential Step에 의해 단일 입자내의 수소이온 확산계수($D_{app}=3{\sim}4{\times}10^{-9}\;cm^2/s$)가 얻어졌다.

This paper reports on the charge distribution measurements of submicron particles for three different charging mechanisms, which are spray electrification, bipolar ionization and corona discharge process, respectively. The number of elementary charges per particle was investigated by classifying and counting of a discrete mobility class. Charge distribution measurements were performed with NaCl particles generated from a collision atomizer for 0.01, 0.1, 1% NaCl solutions. Experimental results show than charge level of atomized NaCl particles is high and decreases with increasing the dissolved ion concentration. The charge level of the atomized NaCl particles can be reduced to that o Boltzmann equilibrium conditions by the bipolar ionization(Po(sup)210 bipolar ionizer). The charge level on NaCl particles passing through the corona discharge reactor is much higher than those of atomized or bipolar ionized NaCl particles. The evaluation of these measurements results in charge distribution of the submicron particles.

An electret fiber with a dipole charge distribution was used to capture charged ultrafine particles in this study. Brownian diffusion and Coulombic force are the dominant collection mechanisms in the electret filtration of charged ultrafine particles. The interaction between Brownian diffusion and Coulombic force for the deposition of ultrafine particles onto a dipolarly charged fiber is studied by solving the convective diffusion equation including Coulombic force as an external force, and the numerical results are compared with the experimental data. As a result, it is shown that there is a negative interaction between Brownian diffusion and Coulombic force, i.e., Coulombic capture efficiency is reduced with decreasing Pe. These results suggest that Brownian diffusion and Coulombic capture efficiency, $\eta$$_{CD}$ is not a simple sum of Brownian diffusion efficiency, $\eta$$_{D}$ and Coulombic capture efficiency, $\eta$$_{C}$.

The flow properties of binder latices for paper coating were investigated, together with dynamic viscoelastic properties of latex films and electron micrographs of latices, under various conditions. The amphoteric latex, binder pigment latex and anionic latex were used in this work. The amphoteric latex has both anionic and cationic functional group on its surface. The binder-pigment with a core-shell structure has dual functions : plastic pigment and binder. The low shear viscosity of binder latices and clay slurry were measured with Brookfield vis cometer. At low-shear rates. the viscosity decreased with increasing particle size of latex. On the amphoteric latex surface, the carboxyl groups are assumed to be fully dissociated over the region of pH 9~12, but the density of negative groups seems to be increased because of the gradual decrease in the degree of dissociation of amino groups. Since the apparent particle size of latex increases with surface charge, the electroviscous effect can be observed. On the anionic latex surface, the charge density is assumed to be nearly constant above pH 8. However, below pH 8 the coagulation of particles could be observed probably because of the decrease in the charge density.
