Definitions
- the breakdown of a dielectric in the presence of high voltage is utilized to measure parameters of interest
- the dielectric may be a gas, a liquid or a solid.
- the purpose of the measurement can be to measure the breakdown products of the dielectric, or to measure the physical or chemical properties of the dielectric, in a preferred aspect of the invention, the measurement of the dielectric breakdown provides a means to measure the production of ozone in an ozone generator using the corona discharge principle.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide apparatus and method for measuring ozone production in an ozone generator using the corona discharge principle.
- Figure 1 is a schematic block diagram of a dielectric breakdown measurement circuit according to the present invention which may be used for measurement of ozone production; and
- Figure 2 is a schematic block diagram of a high voltage transformer with a capacitive transducer affixed thereto according to the present invention.
- the capacitive transducer assembly 12 is a capacitive coupling to the secondary winding of a high voltage transformer, which is used to provide high voltage pulses to a corona discharge ozone generator.
- a corona discharge ozone generator is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,094,882, entitled Ozone Generator, which issued March
