Current Production in a Cylindrical Geometry Electrofluid Dynamic Generator.

Abstract

The objectives of the study were (1) to determine the limiting factors on current production using the corona process of charging, (2) to uncouple or alleviate these limiting factors and (3) to increase the current density at high working pressures (ten atmospheres) to a significant level of current consistent with theory.
