•Study Ch. 9 in Benítez (op.cit.) and annotate all the examples.
Give special attention to the equations that are affected by the resistivity of the ash (dust).
Discuss (a) how changes in resistivity impact ESP operation/design, and (b) how one can manipulate PM resistivity for maximum collection efficiency.
Explain Figure 9.4. (Why is the minimum observed?)
Find an independent confirmation of trends in Figure 9.6 and the effects of gas conditioning on this graph.
•Solve problems 9.1-9.3, 9.10-9.14, 9.16, 9.19-9.21 in Benítez (op.cit.)
