Abstract :
An original study of wire oscillation in the ionizer unit of an electrostatic precipitator was made. The ionizer unit was modeled into a theoretical block diagram system, from which stability criteria were derived. Experimental measurements of the system parameters were devised. A comparison of an experimental single wire, double plate model and the theoretical system model resulted in close agreement.
