Influence of the initial charge on the charging and neutralization states of dielectric particles crossing a corona discharge

Key Points

• The initial charge significantly affects the charging states of dielectric particles, promoting a better understanding of particle behavior.
• On average, particles exhibited variations in neutralization states due to the corona discharge influence, which was critical for their stability.
• Observational analysis within electrical fields demonstrated how surface charge impacts particle dynamics through corona discharge.
• These findings suggest that controlling initial charge may enhance particle performance in various industrial applications.
