With the rapid development of ultra-small and wearable device technology, continuous electricity supply without spatiotemporal limitations for driving electronic devices is required. Accordingly, Triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG), which utilizes static electricity generated by the contact and separation of two different materials, is being used as a means of effectively harvesting various types of energy dispersed without complex processes and designs due to its simple principle. However, to apply the TENG to real life, it is necessary to increase the electrical output. In addition, stable generation of electrical output, as well as increase in electrical output, is a task to be solved for the commercialization of TENG. In this study, we proposed a method to not only improve the output of TENG but also to stably represent the improved output. This was solved by using the contact layer, which is one of the components of TENG, as an electret for improved output and stability. The utilized electret was manufactured by sequentially performing corona charging-thermal annealing-corona charging on the Fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) film. Electric charges artificially injected due to corona charging enter a deep trap through the thermal annealing, so an electret that minimizes charge escape was fabricated and used in TENG. The output performance of the manufactured electret was verified by measuring the voltage output of the TENG in vertical contact separation mode, and the electret treated to the corona charging showed an output voltage 12 times higher than that of the pristine FEP film. The time and humidity stability of the electret was confirmed by measuring the output voltage of the TENG after exposing the electret to a general external environment and extreme humidity environment. In addition, it was shown that it can be applied to real-life by operating the LED by applying an electret to the clap-TENG with the motif of clap.

The effect of magnetic field was measured on NOx removal for cylinder-wire plasma reactor with magnetic field applied to electric field vertically. Power was supplied to plasma reactor using rotating spark gap switch. Consumption power increased with increasing discharge voltage. When magnetic field was applied to electric field vertically, consumption power was less than that without magnetic field because of lorenz's force. NOx removal rate of plasma reactor with magnetic field were higher, 10-15%, than that of plsama reactor without magnetic field. And NOx removal rate decreased with increasing gas flow rate.

Because of using PWM inverters and converters. The problems of insulation breakdown is emerging in both high voltage motors and general motors. In conventional methods, the viewpoint of surge problems is wave propagation with or without cable and inverter. For the purpose of knowing the situation of insulation breakdown, the end-turn coil of windings in the motor winding insulation structure is modelled by FEM, and field analysis of that is done. For first step, only end-turn coil is modelled and the model is simulated with FEM by approximating the resistivity of metallic foil surrounding insulation layers with having nonlinear property. Next, the result of simulation with nonlinear resistivity are compared with the result of linear resistivity. Because of microscope analysis, there is the problem of generalization but the situation of corona discharge in end-turn coil will be explained from this simulation.

In the present study a two-mode, separately concurring resonant cavity model is proposed for theoretical interpretation of the 3 minute umbral oscillation. The proposed model has been investigated by calculating the transmission coefficients of the waves propagating through the umbral photosphere (photospheric weak-field cavity) and chromosphere (chromospheric strong-field cavity) into the corona, for 3 different umbral model atmospheres by Staude (1982), Beebe et al. (1982) and Avrett (1981). In computing the transmission coefficients we made use of multi-layer approximation by representing the umbra] atmosphere by a number of separate layers with (1) temperature varying linearly with depth and (2) temperature constant within each layer. The medium is assumed to be compressible, non-viscous, perfectly conducting under gravity. The computed resonant periods, transmission spectra, phase spectra, and kinetic energy density of the waves associated with the oscillations are presented in comparison with the observations and their model dependent characteristics are discussed.

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]. Cylinder type reactor is at upstream of system for corona discharge and packed bed type reactor filled with sludge pellets ate put at downstream of Cylinder type reactor for catalystic effect. And AC voltage to discharge the gases was supplied. In the result, NO removal with magnetic field is higher than that without magnetic field, when packed-bed reactor with sludge pellet is installed at downstream of cylinder reactor NO, $NO_2$ removal rate increased and $O_3$ is not generated.

In the present work, numerical analyses of broadcasting LED light with ion wind generator have been carried out for enhancement of cooling performance. Ion wind generator is produced and experimented before analysis. With the use of result of experiments, broadcasting LED light model is computed. Ion wind velocity into LED light is varied with 0~3 m/s. Based on the numerical results, the area of duct-type ion wind generator was designed to reduce the volume flow rate of ion wind. The modified inlet geometry shows sufficient cooling capability. And, through modified ion wind generator, the volume flow rate of ion wind has been largely reduced.

This paper describes ozone concentration and discharge characteristics in flowing $O_2$ with variation of Re at high voltage nozzle(HVN). HVN type ozonizer is equipped with ten nozzle. The important conclusions obtained from this paper are as follows. For constant pulse width(Pw) and pulse frequency(Pf) the more Re increases, the higher corona onset voltage(Vc) rise. Vc is inversely proportional to Pw and Pf. Ozone concentration($O_{3con}$) increases with less Re for constant Pw and Pf. $O_{3con}$ increases with less Pw. $O_{3con}$ is proportional to Pf.

In this paper, we evaluated the effect of accumulated charges on hydrophobicity of room temperature vulcanized(RTV) silicone rubber, which could improve the contamination performance of porcelain insulators, with uv radiation time. Outdoor insulating material could be charged by the corona discharge on field intensified area of insulator and discharge between the water drops. In addition, we performed the accelerated uv radiation on samples and investigated the change of charging decay with time. In this results, it is found that silica-like structure on the surface of RTV silicone rubber was formed by uv treatments and this layer have the characteristic of retaining the charges on surface for a long time. These charges have effects on its hydrophobicity and so adversely effects on contamination performance. Based on our results, we discussed the other degradation mechanism with well known ones.

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.

The electrical characteristics and particle collection efficiency of a wide-plate spacing electrostatic precipitator are numerically investigated, and the results are compared with those obtained experimentally. The electric potential and field strength near the collection plate increase with increasing the plate spacing. The electric field strength of a discharge electrode of a twisted pin type is larger than that of a rectangular type. As the roughness factor of the discharge electrode wire becomes small, or the plate spacing becomes narrow, the corona current of the precipitator increases. The numerical results agree well with those obtained from experimental method.
