SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MEASURING STATIC CHARGE ON PARTICULATES

摘要

Systems and methods for estimating a static charge on particulates are provided. The method includes measuring an electrical signal generated during an introduction of particulates to a discharge vessel or an electrical signal generated during removal of the particulates from the discharge vessel. The method also includes integrating the measured electrical signal. The method includes estimating a total charge (Q) on the particulates introduced to the discharge vessel at least in part by using the integrated electrical signal.
