The phenomenon of corona discharge involves the ionisation of air surrounding high-voltage conductors, leading to energy losses and the generation of audible noise. This process is highly sensitive to ...

New research examines the removal of harmful organic substances, such as pharmaceutical residues, energy efficiently from wastewater using only electricity. According to practical tests, pulsed corona ...

Air leaks cost money. According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), over $5 billion per year is spent on energy to power compressed air systems. The DOE estimates that optimizing these systems ...

While they were grad students at Purdue, Dan Schlitz and Vishal Singhal of Thorrn Micro Technologies developed a solid-state fan based on electro-aerodynamic pumping. Their National Science Foundation ...

In our age of pervasive digital media, “pics or it didn’t happen” is a common enough cry that most of us will gladly snap a picture of pretty near anything to post online. So if you’re going to take a ...
