Abstract

Current diagnostics of a high voltage corona discharge setup are analyzed, because the presence of high amplitude oscillations prohibited to obtain a realistic current signal. By means of an electromagnetic computation in FEKO, the observed oscillations have been identified. Current distributions indicated setup improvement by adding a 50Ω damping resistor in the circuit. A realistic current signal is now obtained.
