In this paper, flashover characteristics of air in the vertical arrangement of cylinder-shaped rod and plane gap in the case of combustion flame on the plane electrode were examined under the application of a.c. and d.c. high-voltages. In order to investigate the effect of propane flame on the flashover characteristics of air, flashover voltages in accordance with the variation of the gap length and the horizontal distance between the flame and the high-voltage rod electrode were measured. As the result of the experiment, flashover voltages in the presence of the flame were substantially lowered than those in the absence of flame, and the polarity effects with the d.c. voltages on appeared owing to the flame. Flashover voltages of air were increased in the proportion of the gap length and the horizontal distance in the case of both a.c. and d.c. voltages, but the flame was extinguished by such corona wind that was produced from the rod electrode when the gap length and the horizontal distance reached to a certain degree.

To reduce the earth resistance, earth electrode are installed horizontally or vertically in the earth. There are two kinds of vertical earth electrode methods, one is a deep-driven rod and another is slight-driven parallel rods. Bibliography have so far analyzed the earth resistance calcalation of a rod type electrode and parallel rods type for the multi-layered earth. Befor long, We are going to study earth resistance of deep-driven rod and slight-driven parallel rods in the multi-layered earth with reference to bibliography.

An amperometric sensor for L-ascorbic acid(AA) in methanol media has been made by immobilizing squash-tissues on a graphite rod disk. A detection limit of the electrode was $2{\times}10^{-6}M$ L-ascorbic acid. In comparison with an isolated enzyme based ascorbate oxidase(AO) electrode, the plant-tissue electrode offered high biocatalytic stability and activity and extremely low cost. The electrode has a useful lifetime of 1 week.

In this paper, the analysis of dynamic characteristics and performance investigation of the ER damper are investigated. The ER damper is based on a double rod actuator and an electric field are applied to the moving electrode composed of cylinder and piston. The performance of the ER damper is length of piston electrode field and its velocities. The experimental and calculated results show that the characteristic of the ER damper varies with the magnitude of the electric field.

The impulse impedence of grounding system must be accurately evaluated for a safe grounding design. However, a calculation nettled of the impulse impendence of a horizontal grounding electrode has not been established yet. This paper presents a method to compute the impulse impedance of a rod type grounding electrode and deals with the analysis of the transient characteristics on the electrodes.

This paper aims at the design of high voltage electrode contour under specified field condition. Defining the contour with B-Spline curve, the number of contour variables can be reduced and very smooth electrode can be obtained. For the analysis of the electric field, Surface Charge Method which has advantages in practical model has been used. As an initial contour, the rod-plane gap has been used since the difference between maximum and minimum field value is relatively large. Various field conditions including uniform field condition are given to the end of the rod electrode. Under uniform field condition, authors designed an electrode whose field-deviation was under 0.5%. Finally, the relation between the curvature and field of the electrode has been checked, which showed that B-Spline curve is appropriate for the shape function.

This paper describes analysis of risk voltage for grounding electrode where earth leakage current is injected. To assess risk voltage of grounding electrode, the grounding simulator and CDEGS program were used to obtain measured data and theoretical results of this study. The grounding simulator was composed of a hemispherical water tank, AC power supply, a movable potentiometer, and test grounding electrodes. The shapes of grounding electrode model was ground rod. The potential rise was measured by grounding simulator, and the touch and step voltages were computed by CDEGS program. As a consequence, the potential rise of ground rod abruptly decreases with increasing the distance from the grounding electrode to the point to be tested. The touch voltage above the ground rod was low, but the step voltage was high. The measured results were compared with the computer calculated data and were known in good agreement.

In this paper, discharge characteristics of air in the vertical arrangement of three rods(dome-shaped, cylinder-shaped, and needle-shaped rod) and plane gap having propane flame on the plane electrode are examined under the application of a.c. and d.c. high-voltages. As the result of the experiment, flashover voltages in the presence of the flame are substantially lowered than those in the absence of flame, and relative a.c. flashover voltages in the dome-shaped, cylinder-shaped, and needle-shaped rod gaps are found 32.5%, 32.1%, and 26.4% respectively. The polarity effects with the d.c. voltages are shown, and flashover voltages in negative polarity are much lowered than those in positive one. The negative flashover voltages in the dome-shaped and cylinder-shaped gaps are found 18.3% and 18.7% respectively, but the positive ones are found 53.5% and 43.2% respectively. In the needle-shaped rod gaps, meanwhile, the flame is extinguished by corona wind, and the quenching voltages are found 28.4% under the application of a.c. voltages. The ion winds of corona and the reduction of air density are the main factors of flashover reduction owing to the flame in the case of a.c. voltages, but the electrifications of the positive ion by thermal ionization besides the above factors are remarkably found in the case of d.c. voltages.

Multi-rod type Ag-AgCl electrodes have been developed for use in underwater electric field sensors. The developed cylindrical electrode had a diameter of 50 mm and a height of 130 mm. The electrode had five Ag-AgCl rods with a diameter of 2 mm and a height of 80 mm to enlarge the reaction surface area. Each Ag-AgCl rod was fabricated under the same conditions as the usual anodizing method in an electrolyte. The two developed electrodes were placed in the center of a 500-mm long, 400-mm wide, and 300-mm high acrylic tank filled with artificial seawater, at an interval of 100 mm, to evaluate their characteristics as uniaxial underwater electric field sensors. The underwater external electric field was generated using titanium plate electrodes installed at both ends of the tank. The noise level at 1 Hz of the developed electrode was approximately 3.7 nV/√Hz. The reception of the underwater electric field signal using the developed electrode was linear, within an error of approximately 0.6 %, in the range of 1-10000 ㎶/m at 1 Hz. In addition, its frequency response was flat within an error of 1.1 % in the range of 1-1000 Hz at 10000 ㎶/m.

In this paper, carried out for optimal ground system for ensuring safety for electricity used to power equipment in the 20 kHz frequency. Now the grounding system of the mesh electrode, electrode rods are installed for power plant safety and protection against electric shock. However, the electrical equipment grounding system in the 20 kHz were considering the increasing grounding impedance due to the high frequency and the magnetic shielding. But until now, there has been little research on the grounding system. To solve this problem, In this paper was proposed optimal grounding system due to the experiment using a mesh electrode, rod electrode, aluminum plate electrodes. Measurement results, grounding resistance was depending on the material of the electrode grounding resistance. In addition, the leakage current (induced) appeared to be affected depending on the type of electrode.
