For the effective design of a beam forming structure of the negative-ion-based neutral beam injector, a computer program based on a particle simulation model is developed for the calculation of charged particle motions in the electrostatic fields. The motions of negative ions inside the acceleration tube of a multiple-aperture triode are computed at finite time steps. The electrostatic potentials are obtained from the Poisson's equation by the finite difference method. The successive overrelaxation method is used to solve the matrix equation. The particle and force weighting methods are used on a cloud-in-cell model. The optimum design of the beam forming structure has been studied by using this computer code for the various conditions of elctrodes. The effects of the acceleration-deceleration gap distance, the thickness of the deceleration electrode and the shape of the acceleration electrode on beam trajectories are exmined to find the minimum beam divergence. Some numerical illustrations are presented for the particle movements at finite time steps in the beam forming tubes. It is found in this particle simulation modelling that the shape of the acceleration electrode is the most significant factor of beam divergence.

To compare an electrical and optical characteristics of indium tin oxide (ITO) and carbon nanotube (CNT) electrode on flexible and reflective display, we fabricate two charged particle-type display panels under the same panel condition of which the width of ribs is 10 ${\mu}m$, the cell size is $300{\mu}m{\times}300{\mu}m$, the q/m value of the white particles is -4.3 ${\mu}C/g$ and that for the black is +1.3 ${\mu}C/g$, and the cell gap is 75 ${\mu}m$, 125 ${\mu}m$, and 175 ${\mu}m$. We use plastic substrates coated with ITO and CNT electrode. To evaluate optical property, we measure a response time of particles using a laser and a photodiode. Threshold and driving voltages of CNT electrode according to the sheet resistance of 300, 600, 1,000 (ohm/sq) are compared with ITO electrode of 10 (ohm/sq). A response time of the CNT panel is similar to that of ITO panel, but the threshold and driving voltages of CNT panel are higher than that of ITO panel, inducing a large bombardment of the particles and shortening the lifetime of the panel. High difference of a threshold and a driving voltage of CNT panel will induce an particle clumping, resulting degradation of the panel. A bending radius of the fabricated CNT panel is 18 ${\mu}m$.

In this paper the characteristics of surface flashover for high temperature superconducting transformer(HTS) was discussed. The transformer, will be developed in the shell type with double pancake coil, isn't developed yet in the world. We conducted experiment of surface flashover that could occur in the windings of the transformer. First, we distinguished the surface flashover with electrode alignment into two type, such as parallel and vertical, and then compared with each characteristics of surface flashover. And the surface flashover with metallic particle was tested, it was also affected by the particle position. .

In his work, the influence of wire type conducting particles on the insulation reliability of GIS has been systematically investigated when the epoxy resin based dielectric coating was made on he inner side of outer electrode. For this purpose, coaxial cylinder-type electrode was adopted in 362 kV chamber and various sizes of Cu conducting particle were used under different gas pressures. In order to elucidate the coating effect on the gas insulation, different thickness of dielectric coating has been considered and then the lift-off voltage and flashover voltages have been measured. The results shown that the dielectric coating has a remarkable influence by restraining the movement of particle in GIS system, and thus GIS insulation reliability is noticeably improved.

Abstract - In this paper, the behaviour and effect of various particles made of conducting wires( Fe, Cu, Al ) in a SF6 insulated electrode system, are presented. It is shown that the ac breakdown voltage of compressed SF6 is influenced by different conducting particles. The breakdown voltage due to the particle is dependent of a class of particle. The breakdown voltage due to Cu particle was the highest and the breakdown voltage due to Al particle was the lowest.

In this study, the characteristics of electrostatic bag filter to overcome the main problems such as the high pressure drop and low collection efficiency for submicron particles are investigated with the experimental parameters. Especially, the experiment is carried out focusing on collection efficiency and pressure drop change mechanism as a function of discharge electrode shapes and filter properties, including the applied voltages, filtration velocities and particle concentrations, etc . Results show that the collection efficiency is improved over 30% for the fine particle below 1 pm and pressure drop reduction ratio (PDRR) increases in the following order 4 mm screwy > 4 mm square > 4mm round discharge electrodes . For the filter properties, Nomex is more effective than PE under the influence of electrostatic force. Applying 30 kV for a screwy discharge electrode, higher overall collection efficiency is maintained in spite of the increment of filtration velocity over four times (8 m/min) in comparison with that of 2 m/min and PDRR are highly shown over 80o1o with various filtration velocities, 5, 8, 11 m/min.

The wet electrostatic precipitator (wet ESP) is an effective control device which removes submicron particles reentrained in a collection plate and water soluble gas. However, its collection efficiency decreases, as its operation is subject to water-induced distortion of the collection electrode. In order to make up for the limitation, we modified the wet ESP system by installing electrosprayed discharge electrodes. The modified wet ESP system can wash both the collection plate and discharge electrode. As a result, we were able to fabricate a compact wet ESP with a small specific collecting area ($0.18m^2(m^3/min)$) that can accomplish a high collection efficiency of fine particles (97.1%). In addition, the device obtained a relatively low specific corona power of approximately $10W/(m^3/min)$.

The breakdown was caused by particle in GIS and various methode was suggested to find particle in GIS. In this paper, four states of particle was imitated which are particle on electrode, particle on enclosure, particle on spacer and crossing particle. The discharge voltage of each states was classified by four voltages which are initial, development, later and close discharge voltage. $\Phi$-Q-N pattern was analyzed according to the states and to the discharge voltages. In the result, the electrical discharge pattern according to the particle states may be distinguished.

In this work, the behaviours of conducting wire type particles within the coaxial electrode gap energized with high ac voltage have been systematically investigated using charge simulation method. For this, spheroidal charge is adopted as a image charge for the CSM analysis in order to calculate the acquired charge of the particles which are erected on the surface of the outer electrode. For this purpose, the effects of the lengths and diameters of Cu, Al particles in gas insulated system have been studied by a numerical computation and particle lifting voltage, lifting field, breakdown voltage, acquired charge and travelling distance have been considered. From this, we understand that the particle behaviours have different characteristics according to the particle lengths and diameters. And a possible countermeasure, based on the proposed simulation, has been provided with a view to estimating the flashover voltage of $SF_6$ gas under the 1 atm.
