We present a high repetition rate, high-voltage pulse generator based on a compact high-voltage pulse transformer. The magnetic-core...
A new alternative circuitry for the transformer coupled LC inversion generator (TCLCG) is presented.
In principle, a TCLCG consists of one in-phase 1:1 transformer and two capacitors per elementary stage. First, the two capacitors will be charged via the primary winding of the transformer in opposite polarity. Afterwards, voltage multiplication is being achieved by a closing switch which...
A all-solid-state high voltage fast risetime high repetition rate pulse generator was developed for the EMP(Electromagnetic Pulse) effects. The pulse generator is based on an opening switch topology that uses Drift Step Recovery Diodes (DSRDs) as the opening switches in an inductive-capacitive storage circuit. The pulse generator is capable of delivering voltage pulses with an amplitude of 30...
For lab-scale experiments related to the decontamination of liquids from bacteria an eight-stage pulse generator for generation of bipolar rectangular pulses has been set up. The generator consists of stacked modules in H-bridge configuration. For ground-symmetric operation of the load the generator has been grounded at its center. This is especially important when connecting a PEF-treatment...
With the in-depth application of pulse power technologies in the wide range of biomedicine, food processing, electromagnetic forming, plasma generation, etc., it has posed new requirements to pulse generatorsfor high-volt high frequency, bipolar, and all solid state,. In this paper, a novel bipolar high-volt pulse generator circuit topology is proposed for the needs. Theoretical analysis,...
Applied Physical Electronics, L.C. (APELC) has built a moderate scaled test system to meet MIL STD 461, under the RS-105 test configuration. The system is designed to test objects of up to 2 m x 2 m x 2m, with peak electric fields of up to 60 kV/m. This system uniquely uses a coaxial Marx generator, coupled with a planer peaking circuit to produce the MIL STD waveform, which is characterized...
We are reporting on the formulation and performance of dynamic models for Pulsed Alternators for LTspice. The models are modular and hierarchical and cover both the electrical and mechanical aspects of the electric machine including the mechanical torque, speed and inertia. The models also include the effects of the damper cage and the excitation winding to accurately represent the...
