The proposed setup features two flat, horizontal rotating discs, each connected to a different voltage amplitude. This design is intended to separate aluminum (Al) and copper (Cu) metals from a ternary mixture of aluminum, copper, and PVC (Al/Cu/PVC). The metallic particles moving under the two discs, placed in cascade, are attracted toward the first or the second disc depending on their weight. The first disc is intended to attract light aluminum particles, whereas the second disc with a higher voltage attracts copper particles. The required voltage for aluminum is approximately 5 kV, nearly the half of the required voltage for copper, which is 11 kV. Once the particles are attracted to the discs, they are radially ejected when they reach its surface. The collecting boxes, located on both sides of the discs, capture the separated materials. The separator is equipped with five boxes: two for aluminum, two for copper, and one for PVC, which remains on the conveyor and is recovered at the end. The separator is modeled and optimized using the design of experiments methodology. The main influencing factors were the voltages and the rotation speeds of the two discs. With optimal parameter values—<em>U</em>_<em>Al</em> = 5.60 kV, <em>U</em>_<em>Cu</em> = 11.92 kV, and a speed of 149.7 rpm—the separator achieves a 100 % recovery rate and high purity: over 93 % for aluminum, 94 % for copper, and 100 % for PVC.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54842,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electrostatics","volume":"136 ","pages":"Article 104097"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144117047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By incorporating LED indicators into each PC-TENG and measuring the output voltage, it is a simple and straight way to detect the presence of loose bolts and to identify their specific locations. Moreover, the possibility by only measuring the combined output voltages of TENG sensors was studied, and it was found that the TENG sensors with different output voltages were suitable for the multiple bolts detection, while the ones with similar output voltages cannot be employed for the multiple cases. The inconsistence of TENGs output results was often seen as a disadvantage, but in this work, we innovatively leveraged this behavior to enable multiple bolts loosening detection. By creatively utilizing distinct voltage outputs and integrated LED indicators, this PC-TENG system achieves simple, real-time identification of loose bolts in multi-bolt setups, offering a novel strategy for structural health monitoring in practical applications.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54842,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electrostatics","volume":"135 ","pages":"Article 104093"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144099597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, the growth process of an electrostatic discharge tree during the accumulation of charged particles is studied via the phase-field model. The propagation process of electrostatic discharge is simulated from a microscopic point of view, and the morphology and regional size of electrostatic discharge are obtained. The air breakdown caused by the strong electric field created by the surface charge density is used to model the propagation process. The bifurcation shape and propagation path of the electric tree match those of earlier studies, confirming the accuracy of the model. The electrostatic discharge tree produced by the side and bottom walls of the metal cylinder is simulated after the ideal mesh size and radius have been established.
