Abstract: A powder feeding apparatus which has a substantially simplified structure compared to conventional powder feeding apparatuses and which can be easily installed, without requiring any substantial adjustment work. The powder feeding apparatus includes a powder flow rate measuring capillary, the inlet of which is connected to a powder introducing device and to a sensor nozzle for a powder flow rate detection gas provided with a flow control device. A pressure difference detecting device whose interior volume is invariant during normal operation is connected between the inlet and the outlet of the capillary. Further, a pressure difference adjusting device and a large-diameter feeding duct are connected together.
Abstract: An ozone generating apparatus has a plurality of ozone generating units connected in series to form a plurality of stages along the flow path of a gas. Each ozone generating unit has an ozonizing chamber having a material gas inlet and a product gas outlet and ozonizer discharge electrodes disposed in the ozonizing chamber and connected to an AC high-voltage source. The voltage applied to said ozonizing discharge electrodes of each successive stages is so varied that the ozonizing discharge electrodes of each downstream stage, as viewed in the direction of flow of the gas, is supplied with a lower voltage than the voltage supplied to said ozonizer discharge electrodes of an adjacent upstream stage. A series connection of a plurality of ozone generating units can form a composite ozone generating unit, and a plurality of such composite units may be connected in series to form a plurality of stages. The voltages applied to such successive stages is varied in the same manner a above.
Abstract: A discharge element comprises a linear electrode and a sheet electrode both of which are provided opposite to each other with an insulator sheet therebetween, in which the linear electrode is formed by plasma spray coating a high-meting point semiconductor so as not to be worn when a high-frequency high voltage is applied between both electrodes.
