Abstract :
Some discharging effectiveness was found in the oil tank system equipped with 100 or 200 mesh stainless screen fixed on top of the diffuser at the oil inlet. To study the discharging mechanism in detail, the potential distribution along the axis of the cylindrical oil tank, the earth current in each part of the oil-flow system, and surface potential of the oil tank were measured.
