In this paper, we investigated the relationship between the needle electrode current and the needle electrode potential, The needle electrode potentials have influence on the needle electrode currents absolutely. So, to increase the needle electrode currents there is necessary to keep a high electric field if the charge reducer. for this, high insulation materials must be selected, and charge density of insulating oil must be high. In this experiment, the more a charge density of insulating oil increases, the more a needle electrode potential increases. So we could know what increasement of needle electrode potential increases a needle electrode current.

A corona discharge system with needle point or wire type corona electrode has been well used as an ionic wind blower. The corona discharge system with a needle point electrode produces ions at lower applied voltage effectively. However, the corona discharge on the needle point electrode transits to the arc discharge at lower voltage, and it is hard to obtain the elevated electric field in the discharge airgap for enhancing the ion migration velocity due to the weak Coulomb force. A cylindrical corona electrode with sharp round tip is reported as one of effective corona electrode, because of its higher breakdown voltage than that of the needle electrode. A basic study, for the effectiveness of cylindrical electrode shape on the ionic wind generation, has been investigated to obtain an maximum wind velocity, which however is the final goal for the real field application of this kind ionic wind blower. In this paper, a parametric study for maximizing the ionic wind velocity utilizing the cylindrical corona electrode and a maximum ion wind velocity of 4.1 m/s were obtained, which is about 1.8 times higher than that of 2.3m/s obtained with the needle corona electrode from the velocity profile.

In this papers, we proposed the new method in order to diagnosis partial discharge type of transformers. For wavelet transform, Daubechie's filter is used,, we can obtain wavelet coefficients which is used to extract featrue of statistical parameters(maximum value, average value, dispersion, skewness, kurtosis) about high frequency current signal per 3-electrode type(needle-plane electrode, IEC electrode and Void electrode). Also, these coefficients are used to identify signal of internal partial discharge in transformer. As a result, from compare of high frequency current signal amplitude and average value, we are obtained results of IEC electrode> Void electrode> Needle-Plane electrode. Otherwise, in case of skewness and kurtosis, we are obtained results of Void electrode> IEC electrode> Needle-Plane electrode. As improved method in order to diagnosis partial discharge type of transformers, we use neural network.

A point-mesh type corona system has been well used as a ionic wind blower. However this type corona system suffers from its lower ionic wind generation, because of its lower on-set and breakdown voltages of its very sharp needle point corona electrode. This means that the point corona electrode must act both as an effective ion-generator and a very higher electric field producer in the discharge airgap in order to generate higher ionic wind velocity. In this paper, a cylinder-mesh type discharge system as a ionic wind generator is proposed and investigated. The cylindrical corona electrode can produce many ions from its sharpened edge, and the corona on-set and breakdown voltages are very higher than those of the needle point corona electrode. As a result, this type cylindrical corona electrode might generate a higher ionic wind than the needle point corona electrode.

Transmission equipment is mainly used for the XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) insulation cable for ultra high voltage power to minimize power loss. The experiment examined the partial discharge characteristics according to the insertion of the bar electrode and needle electrode into the XLPE specimen and the air voids. XLPE insulation cable manufactured by T. company and tungsten electrode material by K. company were used for specimens, by adhering conductive tape on the semi-conductive material of the lower electrode of XLPE specimen with the dimension of $16{\times}40{\times}30$ [mm] was used as negative electrode. In order to investigate the PD with ${\phi}$-q-n of XLPE specimen according to the electrode shape and the size of air voids. we examined the PD by varying the voltage after applying voltage of 3~20 kV on the electrode. Therefore, it was confirmed from the result of PD characteristics of specimen that the larger the air void than the gap between electrode (+) and electrode(-), the larger effect on the discharge when the bar electrode and needle electrode inserted into XLPE, and the closer the distance between the insulation and the needle electrode, the faster insulation breakdown.

Methods and systems to remove static electricity are requested in the field of industry because the static electricity causes a flammable gas explosion or fire and a reduction of production rate in manufacturing semiconductor devices and so on. This paper is a basic study about a new structure of electrode system to control the quantities of generated ions and to solve the problem of dust attachment to needle electrode. In addition, a new type field controlled electrostatic charge neutralizer was proposed, and it could control the electric field in the end of the needle electrode by controlling the voltage of the third electrode around the tip of the needle electrode. As aresult, it was possible to control the quantities of generated ion by controlling the electric field in the needle electrode with the third electrode, which shows the possibilities to solve the nonequilibrium of generated ions in ac power source and the problem of the dust in the needle electrode.

The electric charge generated by flowing insulation liquid can create hazardous spark in transfer line and receiving tank etc. These electrification has generally been measured by current measurement with a ammeter connected to the receiving tank. This paper reports on the experimental result obtained by this method. As a experimental results: The injected charge value for unit volume increased in the following condition, the edge of the needle electrode was sharp, the number of needle electrode was fewer, the edge of the needle electrode was located close to the inside wall. When the charge density in the charge reducer is constant, electrode current and electrode potential by the charge injection from outside increase with increasing of oil velocity and streaming current. The electrode potential in charge reducer is made maximum value at edge point of reducer inside and minimum value at center line of charge reducer.

The needle electrode is inserted into the cross-linked polyethylene(XLPE) which is the ultra high voltage cable for electric power. By changing the tilt of the needle electrode, we investigated how the void and the thickness of the insulating layer influence the partial discharge(PD) characteristics and the insulating breakdown. In order to investigate the PD characteristics, The XLPE cable was used to the specimens and the tungsten electrode was used with the needle electrode. And the inner semi-conductive layer material of XLPE cable was used with the negative electrode by bonding with the use of conduction tape. The size of the specimens was manufactured to be $16{\times}40{\times}30[mm^3]$. We confirmed the effect on changing the PD characteristics according to the changing voltage and the tilt of the electrode after applying the voltage on the electrode from 1[kV] to 40[kV] at room temperature. In the PD characteristics, it was confirmed that the PD current of air void specimens with tilt was unstable more than that of no void specimens with tilt. It was also confirmed that the breakdown voltage was decreased because the effect of air void is more active than the change of the needle electrode tilt in the specimen with air void inside the insulation.
