Driving Asynchronous Induction Launchers: Design and Simulation of a Novel Power Conditioner with a Brief Review

The design and implementation of an asynchronous coilgun’s structure is relatively simple compared with other types linear induction launchers. In order to drive rotating electrical machines, multilevel converter structures have attracted much attention in recent decades as a result their unique advantages. A launcher has identical theoretical background machines; therefore, can be applied them well. stator excited by generators or capacitor groups whose voltage frequency might fixed changeable power conditioner. aim this study simulate novel conditioner topology for the source coilgun. Cascaded H-Bridge constitutes proposed which level-shifted pulse-width modulation method used generate appropriate pulses switches converter. Additionally, variable-voltage variable-frequency control involved converter’s modulation.
