Abstract
The properties of the negative corona current pulses in a single point-to-plane configuration have been extensively studied by many investigators. The amplitude and the interval of these pulses are not generally constant and depend on many variables. The repetition rate and the amplitude of the pulses fluctuate in time. Since these fluctuations are subject to a certain probability distribution, the statistical processing was used for the analysis of the pulse fluctuations. The behavior of the pulses has been also investigated in a multipoint geometry configuration. The dependence of the behavior of the corona pulses on the gap lengths, the material, the shape of the point electrode, the number and separation of electrodes (in the multiple-point mode) has been investigated, too. No detailed study has been carried out up to now for this case. The attention has been devoted also to the study of the pulses on the points of live materials (needles of coniferous trees). This contribution describes recent studies of the statistical properties of the pulses for various conditions.
