Corona discharge occurs more in
Corona discharge occurs more in
Right Answer is:
Humid Weather
SOLUTION
- In humid conditions, there is more water droplets in the atmosphere this water droplet increases the electric field on the surface of the conductor hence corona is generated.
- The high humidity decreases the breakdown strength of the air surrounding the conductor which further decreases the intensity of the discharge.
- This electric field accelerates the free electron charge in the air surrounding the conductor.
- This causes an avalanche which is called the corona discharge.
