Optimization of Discharging Electrodes of a Multi-Chamber Electrostatic Precipitator for Small Heat Sources

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

On the way to reducing emissions released into the atmosphere, there is an obstacle in the form of the emissions of solid pollutants produced by households, namely the burning of solid fuels in small heat sources. In this article, the authors deal with the development of a low-cost electrostatic precipitator, which would be able to significantly reduce the production of particulate matter. This is a tubular precipitator concept, which is enhanced by dividing the precipitation space into four chambers, each of which has an ionization electrode. With the investigated structural arrangement, it is possible to increase the size of the collection area without affecting the external dimensions of the separator. The essence of this article was to focus on the design of an ionization electrode, which, in addition to the function of a negative electrode, would also fulfill the function of a structural element of the proposed geometry. The work contains a technical design for the shape of the ionization electrode, which was subsequently examined using ANSYS Fluent software. The conditions under which a corona discharge will occur on the electrodes and how particulate matter is captured in the separation device were investigated with the help of simulations of the electric field intensity. According to the achieved simulation results, calculations were made for the theoretical efficiency of particle collection, which reached a value of approximately 78%.
