Recently the pulsed power systems have been widely used in many fields such as E/P(Electrostatic Precipitator), DeNOx/DeSOx power systems, ozone generators and power sources of the laser beam. In this paper, we studied various electrical characteristics for arc suppression of line-to-line electrodes in air and removal of the metaloxide using our pulsed power system. To obtain high efficiency of the pulsed power system, we repeatedly experimented and tested their characteristics. by adjusting electrode length of the load. As a result, when the value of the electrode length and pulse repetition rate were changed at the load, the value of the arc voltage changed at the electrode load. In conclusion, we controlled arc voltage of the load by ,changing electrode length and pulse repetition rate. Also. we stydied removal area of the metaloxide using area discharge according to pulse repetition rate.

This paper discussed the theoretical simulation results for developing the blumlein pulsed power source and showed the circuit configuration and the discharge characteristics of the realistic manufactured pulsed power system. In the simulation, the output voltage characteristics at a load resistor showed the general impulse shape when the impedance of a single coaxial cable is matched with the that of a load resistor. In addition, it is confirmed that output values of the pulsed power can be easily controlled by the duplication of coaxial cables and the pulsed waveform showed the general impulse characteristics. Specifically, the inception discharge voltage in the gap distance of 5[mm] between needle and plane electrodes is about 20[kV] and which is lower than about 29[kV] in 9[mm] due to the difference of the reaching time of the inception voltage. Therefore, this paper showed that the output voltage of the blumlein pulsed power source can be easily controlled.

본 논문에서는 GaN HEMT (Gallium Nitride High Electron Mobility Transistor) bare-chip을 이용하여 X-대역에서 수동로드 풀(Passive load-pull)을 수행하였다. 열로 인한 특성 변화가 최소화 된 동작 조건을 얻기 위해 드레인 바이어스 전압과 입력 RF 신호를 펄스로 인가하였다. 전자기장 시뮬레이션과 회로 시뮬레이션을 병행하여, 와이어 본딩 효과를 고려하여 드레인 경계면에서의 정확한 임피던스 정합 회로를 구현하였다. 임피던스를 변화시키기 위해 마이크로스트립 라인 스터브의 길이가 조절 가능한 회로를 설계하였다. 펄스 로드 풀 실험 결과 8.5 GHz에서 9.2 GHz 대역에서 최대 42.46 dBm의 출력 전력을 얻었으며, 58.7%의 드레인 효율 특성을 얻었다.

This study proposes a gate driver that operates semiconductor switches in the bipolar pulsed power modulator. The proposed gate driver was designed to receive isolated power and synchronized signals through the gate transformer. The gate circuit has a separate delay in the on-and-off operation to prevent a short circuit between the top and bottom switches of each leg. On the basis of the proposed gate circuit, a bipolar pulsed power modulator prototype with a 2.5 kV/100 A rating was developed. Finally, the bipolar pulsed power modulator was tested under resistive load and plasma reactor load conditions. It is verified that the proposed gate driver can be applied to a bipolar pulsed power modulator.

This paper describes the design of a power cell-based pulsed power modulator with fast rise times. The pulse-generating section of the pulse power modulator is a series stack of power cells. Each power cell is composed of a storage capacitor, a pulse switch, and a bypass diode. When the pulse switches are turned on, the capacitors are connected in series and the sum of voltages is applied to the load. For output pulses with fast rise times, an IGBT with fast turn-on characteristics is adopted as a pulse switch and the optimized gate driving method is used. Pspice simulation is performed to account for the gate driving method. A 10 kV, 12-power cell-based pulsed power modulator is tested under resistive load and plasma reactor load. The rise times of output pulses less than 20 ns are confirmed, showing that the pulsed power modulator can be effectively applied to pulsed power applications with fast rise times.

The pulsed power systems have been widely used many other countries and their new applications have been developed by many researchers, such as E/P(Electrostatic Precipitator) to remove the industrial dust, DeNOx/DeSOx power systems, ozone generators and power sources of the laser beam, etc. In this paper, we studied the cascading technique as a new technology consisted of two pulse transformers and obtained their experimental data and results. To obtain the high pulsed voltage adopted cascading technique, we designed our compact pulse generator and tested by adjusting the value of the load resistors to obtain high pulsed voltage with steep rising time and duration time. We explained their experimental results that obtained by adopting cascading technique. Also, we compared theoretical value with measured value obtained by using the cascading method.

This paper proposes a new control method for the supercapacitor (SC) to compensate the pulsed load and to enhance the power quality of the DC microgrid. By coordinating the operating frequency, the SC is controlled to handle the surge current, while the low-frequency current component is dealt with by the remaining sources in the system. The operation mode of the SC unit is automatically changed based on the state of charge and DC bus voltage level. Meanwhile, the mismatch in the power demand is covered by the SC unit by regulating the DC bus voltage level. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified experimentally by the prototype with two distributed generators and one SC unit.

An active resonance damper for a DC Distributed Power System(DPS) with parallel loads is presented. Each pulse power load in a DC DPS comprises both a resistive power load and a step-up converter. The step-up converter behave as constant power load(CPL) when tightly regulated and usually cause a negative impedance instability problem. Furthermore, when an input filter is connected to a large constant power load, the instability of DC bus voltage. In this paper, a bidirectional DC/DC converter with a reduced storage capacitor quantitatively are proposed as a active resonance damper, to mitigate the voltage instability on the bus. The validity of the proposed method was confirmed by simulation and experimental works.

This paper deals with the design considerations and characteristics analysis of a SCR rectifier in pulsed over load operation. The Pulse repetition rate is one every 150 seconds and each current pulse width is 10 seconds. Therefore the characteristics of the transformer and SCR rectifier which consist the pulsed DC power supply are different from those of the conventional AC/DC power converters having continuous load. The variations of the DC output voltage drop, PF and THD versus the %Z of the transformer is analyzed through simulations and the experimental results thought to be useful in design high power pulsed DC power suppler.

An efficient control method of ZVS Full-bridge PWM converter with a periodic pulsed-load current is proposed. This novel control method can reduce the switching loss of switches during no load condition. Moreover, by using feed-forwarded load current information this method can obtain better transient dynamics compared to the system with only linear feedback control.
