background: in this study, an electroscrubber was designed and experimented for e valuation of integrating particle and droplet charging effects separately and jointly on collection efficiency of a spray tower and also to discover the optimal condition. methods: a homogenous concentration of relatively fine particles was introduced to influent air stream and electroscrubber efficiency in purify...

in this study, an electrostatic sprayer which had been previously designed and constructed was evaluated in order to quantify the charging of droplets. liquid atomization was achieved by using an ultrasonic nozzle. the nozzle maximum flow rate was 25 milliliters per minute and vibration frequency was about 30 khz. the induction method was used for charging the output droplets. all experiments w...

This review article summarizes the main results of recent fundamental research on the electrical charging of nanometer-sized aerosol particles (particle diameter below 10 nm, Knudsen number above about 15, kinetic regime). It covers topics of great relevance to aerosol processing and measurement, such as the effect of the presence of a number of ions on the surface of a nanoparticle on its elec...

The response time of the smart electrical vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure is the key index of the system performance. The traffic between the smart EV charging station and the control center dominates the response time of the smart charging stations. To accelerate the response of the smart EV charging station, there is a need for a technology that collects the information locally and relay...

A well-known charging process is used to obtain the free energy of an electrical double layer, in which the double layer is built up by a transfer of ions from one phase to another. The present study formulates proofs that this charging process cannot determine the free energy of an electrical double layer.

We discuss the application of classical variational methods to optimal charging/discharging strategies for a prosumer or storage supplier, where the price of electrical power is known in advance. We outline how a classical calculus of variations approach can be applied to two related problems: (i) how can a prosumer minimise the cost of charging/discharging a battery, when the price of electric...

Plug-in Electric Vehicle (PEV) charging stations couple future transportation systems and power systems. That is, PEV driving and charging behavior will influence the two networks simultaneously. This paper studies optimal planning of PEV fast-charging stations considering the interactions between the transportation and electrical networks. The geographical targeted planning area is a highway t...

A simple model of electrical transport through a metal-aromatic molecule-metal system that includes charging effects as well as aspects of the electronic structure of the molecule, is presented. The interplay of a large charging energy and an asymmetry of the metal-molecule coupling can lead to various effects in nonlinear electrical transport. In particular, strong negative differential conduc...
