A new high-speed drive method for the plasma display panel is proposed. In this method, the address period is inserted for the rest period of the sustain pulses and the priming pulse is applied on the entire panel at the same time overlapping with the sustain period. The ramp shaped priming pulse can be made with a simple drive circuit in this technology and the stable sustain discharge can be induced even by a narrow scan pulse in help of the space charge generated from the address discharge. From the experiments, it is ascertained that the priming pulse hardly influences the sustain discharge. Moreover, the voltage margin of the sustain discharge is almost constant though that of the address discharge broadens with narrowing the scan pulse width. And, if the time interval between the scan pulse and the sustain pulse is within $6{\mu}s$, the voltage margin of the address and the sustain discharges are unaffected though the applied position of the scan pulse is changed. High-speed driving with the address pulse of $0.7{\mu}s$ width was achieved and the address voltage margin of 20V and the sustain voltage margin of 10V were obtained.

In this experimental study we Proposed the double dielectric barrier discharge (DDBD) reactor to produce as high an electric field as possible. The experiment are conducted for applied voltage from 15 to 20[tV], flow gas rage at 2[1/min] and pulse rate at 120[pulses/s] and 240[pulses/s]. SPD connection of DDBD which combine the surface discharge with the silence discharge was most effective to reduce the NOx. In the decomposition efficiency per watt, the low pulse rate gave hotter efficiency than that of the high pulse rate. However in DeNOx rate, the high pulse rate gave better performance than that of the low pulse rate. NOx removal rate increased with increasing the applied voltage in all reactors.

In this experimental study we proposed the double dielectric barrier discharge (DDBD) reactor to produce as high an electric field as possible. The experiment are conducted for applied voltage from 15 to 20[kV], $1~4[\ell/min]$ of gas flow rate and 120[Hz] and 240[Hz] of pulse rate. Superposition discharge(SPD) generated in DDBD which combined the surface discharge with the silence discharge was the most effective to reduce the $NO_x$. In the decomposition efficiency per watt, the low pulse rate gave better efficiency than the high pulse rate. However in DeNOx rate, the high pulse rate gave better performance than the low pulse rate. $NO_x$ removal rate and efficiency increased with increasing the applied voltage in all reactors.

Electrical pulse disintegration(ED) is known as an efficient technology for recovering valuable resources by inducing dielectric breakdown in solids to separate mineral interfaces in ores among the crushing technologies by high voltage discharge. In this study, ED crushing experiment and mechanical crushing experiment of sulfide minerals were performed, and SEM analysis and Microfocus X-Ray CT of the crushed product were performed in order to analyze the disintegration characteristics of zinc minerals exist in the sulfide minerals by the shock wave generated in the solid by high voltage discharge.

High voltage plasma power supply was adopted to control polluted gases and an ozone generation. Bidirectional pulse power supply consisted of power semiconductor switch devices, a high voltage transformer, and a control board adapted switching method. Plasma power supply with sinusoidal bidirectional pulse, which has output voltage range of 0-20kV and output frequency range of 1kHz-20kHz, is realized. Using proposed system, pulsed high voltage/high frequency discharges were tested in a DBD(dielectric barrier discharge) reactor, and the spatial distribution of a glow discharge was observed. The system showed stable operational characteristics, even though the voltage and the frequency increased. Above features were verified by experiments.

We propose a pulsed $CO_2$laser below 30W by the AC(60Hz) switching control of leakage transformer primary which has some advantages of cost and size compared to a typical pulsed power supply. Pulse repetition rate is adjusted from 5 Hz to 60 to Hz control laser output. In this laser a low voltage open loop control for high voltage pulse discharge circuit is employed to aviod the Hv sampling or switching and high voltage leakage transformer is used to convert low voltage pulse rectified from AC to high voltage one. A ZCS(Zero Crossing Switch) circuit and a PIC(programble one-chip microprocessor are used to control gate signal of SCR precisely. The pulse repetition rate is limited by 60Hz due to the frequency of AC line and a high leadkage inductance. The maximum laser output was about 23 W at pulse repetition rate of 60Hz total gas mixture of $CO_2$ : $N_2$ : He=1: 9: 15 and total pressure of 18 Torr

In this paper the insulation characteristics test results of 25 low-voltage induction motors($3\phi$, 5HP, 380V) are presented. Five different types of insulation techniques are applied to 25 motors. The maximum partial discharge (PD) magnitude ($\textrm{Q}_{m}$) discharge inception voltage (DIV) dissipation factor tip-up ($\Delta$tan$\delta$) and rate of change in AC current($\Delta$I) are measured by PD and AC current tests. Also the insulation breakdown tests by high voltage pulse are performed and the corresponding breakdown voltage are obtained.

This paper presents soft switching zero voltage switching high frequency inverter for rare gas fluorescent lamp using dielectric-barrier discharge phenomenon. The simple high-frequency inverter can completely achieve stable zero voltage soft switching (ZVS) commutation for wide its output power regulation ranges and load variations under its constant high frequency pulse density modulation (PDM) scheme. Its transient and steady state operating principle is originally described and discussed for a constant high-frequency PDM control strategy under a stable ZVS operation commutation, together with its output effective power regulation characteristics-based on the high frequency PDM strategy. The experimental operating performances of this high frequency Inverter are illustrated as compared with computer simulation results and experimental ones. Its light dimming characteristics due to power regulation scheme are evaluated and discussed on the basis of simulation and experimental results. The feasible effectiveness of this high frequency inverter appliance implemented here is proven from the practical point of view.

This paper presents the generation of the high voltage squarewave pulse using distributed RLC circuit. The demonstrated test was performed with the distributed RLC circuit which consists of the resistance, the inductance and the capacitance. Pspice simulation was also conducted about the experiment circuit. The result of the experiment was in good agreement with the result of the simulation. Theoretical analysis of the initial peak value at the squraewave pulse was derived from the results of the experiment and simulation. Additionally, the characteristics of the time delay was analyzed about the spherical gap switch and the surface discharge gap switch, respectively. It is concluded that the surface discharge gap switch is better than the spherical gap switch to reduce the time delay.

On-line monitoring of fault discharge is an important approach for indicating the condition of electrical insulation of stator winding in high voltage motor. In this paper, several key aspects of on-line monitoring system are discussed, involving the characteristics of fault discharge of stator winding in high voltage motor, spectrum analysis of four simulation fault signals, feature extraction of internal fault discharge from apply voltage to breakdown. The study of the partial discharge activities allows to highlight the ageing stage in the winding fault under test. During the life of the winding insulation fault, the shape of PD signal change relating to the ageing stage. The ageing of stator winding insulation fault of high voltage motor is investigated based on the characteristics of partial discharge pulse distribution and statistical parameters, such as maximum, skewness and kurtosis using discrete wavelet transform coefficients.
