Blowing Dust Away With Electrostatic Wind
Abstract
Ionized air molecules drive away contaminants. Electrostatic wind prevents dust buildup and subsequent electrical breakdown in powerlines, transformers, switchgears, Van de Graaff generators, electrostatic precipitators, and other high-voltage equipment. Makes periodic cleaning or airblasting unnecessary.
