      @@KumaPaws376 He's talking out his arse. 5G wireless frequencies are higher than 4G not more powerful. They are so far from being powerful enough to give off corona discharge. Old AM/FM radio transmitters of many thousands of watts could potentially create a corona discharge aroun the antenna, but it is not a desirable outcome so the antenna, filters and amplifiers were designed to stop that from happening.

    The Corona Discharge (and the opposite due to positive charge) were first described by Giambattista Beccaria in 1753.
    He called them "stelletta" (starlet) and "fiocco" (ribbon) respectively.

    • @Prof-Hafner
      @Prof-Hafner  4 роки тому +6

      Thanks! Yes if you watch closely you can see some arcs around the brushes. I didn't get into exactly how the Wimshurst works, but the brushes a dragged over metal pads on the insulating plastic wheel. I suspect that if you run the wheel fast enough, the brushes charge up to an arcing potential in the time they spend moving between the metal pads. It probably also helps that the brushes are made of sharp wires, so it is easier for them to create an arc.

You mentioned the system being discharged after each spark, so wouldn't each spark feel like the first as the system is being 'reset' every time?

Yes, it is very hot, but it has a very small heat capacity since it is a gas. To burn you, something needs to be hot (to transfer energy) but also have a lot of energy to transfer. It is like why you can take a piece of tinfoil directly out of your oven without getting burned.

    So if you have near enough and charged enough electrodes in air you can get an arc discharge. But you can also get a coronal discharge in the air near the electrodes. I've seen a coronal discharge in a fairly strong vacuum. How does that happen if there's no air to ionise? Is it to do with the breakdown voltage changing with pressure?

    I know this is an old video, but in case somebody is still reading this:
    Would it be possible to create faster ionic wind by repetitively disabling the collector electrode (=ion wind between a "sharp" emitter and a blunt collector) and instead "steal" the ions away by accelerating them into kind of a linear particle accelerator (= mixture of a miniature linear version of the CERN and a multistage plasma actuator, with high-voltage electrodes with fast-switching alternating polarities and gaps in between)?
    I wonder if this could be more energy efficient than a traditional multistage ion wind generator, because neutralizing ions only to create new ones in the emitter of the next stage seems like kind of a waste.
