Compact High-Voltage Pulse Generator for Pulsed Electric Field Applications: Lab-Scale Development

Microcontroller Based High Voltage Pulse Electric Field Generator for Pasteurization

In This paper describes the design and implementation of Microcontroller based High Voltage pulse electric field generator for Liquid food pasteurization. It generates a high voltage (15 kV) approximately in the frequency range from 250 Hz to 30 kHz. This high voltage applied for food pasteurization, which is placed between two electrodes.

Cascaded High Voltage Converter with Variable Control for Pulsed Electric Field Applications

Living a sustainable lifestyle while facing increasing population and decreasing natural resources has become one of humanity's largest challenges. Locating fossil fuels is becoming more difficult while the demand for them to power our societies is ever increasing. Instead of finding more efficient methods of extracting fossil fuels, developing technologies that create renewable substitutes for...

Compact Nanosecond Pulse Generator

A compact nanosecond pulse generator was designed and tested. The generator has a specially designed unit consisting of an HCEIcap 1000.2 capacitor and a multigap switch. The total inductance of the unit is 20 nH. The modifications made in the design allowed an increase in energy density up to 370 J/l at an electric field strength of 200 kV/mm. The volume of the capacitor active part is 2.3 l. ...

High-voltage pulsed generator for dynamic fragmentation of rocks.

A portable high-voltage (HV) pulsed generator has been designed for rock fragmentation experiments. The generator can be used also for other technological applications. The installation consists of low voltage block, HV block, coaxial transmission line, fragmentation chamber, and control system block. Low voltage block of the generator, consisting of a primary capacitor bank (300 μF) and a thyr...
