Bickelhaupt, R E

The report, describing the apparatus and laboratory procedures used to determine resistivity for a number of fly ashes under a variety of test conditions, supports research to develop a technique for predicting fly ash resistivity from chemical analyses of coal and coal ash. This effort requires considerable knowledge regarding the relationship between resistivity and several coal and ash properties. In particular, the report relates the experimental problems encountered when attempts were made to determine the effect of sulfur trioxide on resistivity. Equipment and procedures were developed to solve this problem. The report describes the modified apparatus and technique and illustrates the type of data acquired.
