METHOD AND DEVICE FOR STUDYING PARTICLE CROWN ELECTRIZATION KINETICS

摘要

FIELD: measurement technology; experimental physics. SUBSTANCE: method involves measuring initial charge of particles, influencing the particles with crown discharge ions with time delay &Agr;t=RC,t=RC, where R is the resistance and C is the capacitance of the particles, from the moment of charge measuring, stopping influence, measuring time of influence and charge increment during the time &Dgr;t,t, additionally acting with crown discharge ions until saturation is achieved, measuring saturation charge during two time intervals &Dgr;tt and calculating charge and discharge time constants. Discharging chamber 2 and measuring chamber 3 are mounted in casing 1 of the device with conducting partition 4 between the chambers. Crowning electrode 5 is in discharging chamber 2 and measuring electrode 6 is in measuring chamber 3. Grounded electrode 7 is horizontally movably mounted in the lower part of casing 1. Cuvettes 8 and members fixing electrode position are fixed on electrode 7. EFFECT: enhanced effectiveness of the method in scientific research applications. 2 cl, 4 dwg, 1 tbl
