ABSTRACT:
A corona generator method and apparatus preferably for generating ozone, employing a plurality of corona generating cells each comprising a pair of parallel spaced-apart electrodes having a fired-on coating of porcelain enamel. The electrodes are connected to an AC voltage source of sufficient voltage to generate a corona discharge, and an oxygen-containing gas is passed between the electrodes to generate ozone. A high concentration ozone is produced as well as a large quantity of ozone, without water cooling, and at voltages of approximately 6,000 volts. An equation setting forth, for the first time, the interrelationships between the various parameters in a corona generator is derived by Applicant. According to the invention, the corona power is maximized by maximizing the expression .epsilon./Td, where epsilon is the dielectric constant of the porcelain enamel coating and Td is the dielectric thickness.
