Papers by Keyword: V-I Characteristic

Abstract: A laboratory-scale ESP with new electrode configuration was established to investigate the electric field characteristic. Eight teeth prick line and prick plate with the length of 20mm were employed as discharge electrodes, respectively. The effects of discharge electrode type and electrode gap on V-I characteristic and surface current density were studied. The results showed that the optimum electrode gaps were 350-400mm for eight teeth line and 300-350mm for prick plate, which could obtained higher average current density and lower variance.

Abstract: A novel wet electrostatic precipitator used carbon fiber membrane as collector electrodes was designed for effective control of fine aerosol. The volt-ampere (V-I) characteristics of 3k，6k and 12k carbon fiber membrane with four kinds of typical discharge electrode were investigated to seek the ideal form of corona electrode. The results showed that 12k carbon fiber membrane obtained a higher corona current in the same voltage.

Abstract: Laminar-type thin-film ZnO varistors were fabricated on sintered alumina substrates using visible light (532nm) pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The structure of the laminar-type thin-film varistor is Ni / Co-added ZnO / impurity layer / Co-added ZnO / Ni. Many droplets were observed on the deposited Bi2O3+MnO2 compared with the deposited Co-added ZnO thin film. Moreover, for droplets on the Bi2O3+MnO2 layer, the content of Mn was higher than that of Bi. The V-I characteristics of the deposited ZnO+CoCl2 or Bi2O3+MnO2 thin film were ohmic. However, V-I characteristics of laminar-type thin film including the Bi2O3+MnO2 impurity layer deposited for 30min showed nonlinearity. The non linearity index α was approximately 2 and the varistor voltage was approximately 1V. Thermal annealing in N2 gas atmosphere at 700°C for 10 min was carried out to improve the crystallinity of the thin film. After annealing, both the varistor voltage and the current at which nonlinearity appeared decreased. Moreover, the value of non linearity index α was approximately 2.8.
