An Introduction To Electrostatic Measurements 1st Edition John Chubb by John Chubb 9781611226874, 1611226872 instant download after payment.

The book presents the experience John Chubb has gained from his work on static electricity from over 50 years of involvement. This is not an academic textbook and does not aim to cover every aspect of electrostatics. Rather it outlines the features required for good quality electrostatic measurements and presents the results of the experience gained from devising, developing and manufacturing a range of practical instruments. The book concentrates on the design and practical features of ‘field mill’ electrostatics fieldmeters, on the use of corona charge decay as an appropriate method for assessing the electrostatic suitability of materials, on the use of capacitance loading as an additional relevant characteristic of materials, on a novel method for measuring the ability of materials to provide shielding against transient electric fields and on methods for calibration of electrostatic measuring instruments. Experience is described from a variety of practical studies of electrostatic problems.
