Evaluation and analysis of fog dispersion under the influence of an electric field

In this work, the steam droplets dispersion was evaluated under the influence of an alternating current field through a flyback transformer in an experimental fog chamber. The main objective is to design a high voltage and frequency transformer to disperse fog in the environment. The dispersion was evaluated through reliability levels by using t-distribution for 3 optical sensors inside the chamber. The charged particles were produced around a corona discharge for 3 different trials: flyback turned off and turned on during all the trial, and flyback turned on at the half of the trial. The results obtained show a reliability level of 1.27σ for the lower optical sensor and 1.59σ for the upper optical sensors.
