Modelling and simulation on a novel meat grinder circuit for the dynamic pulsed power load

Abstract

Compared with the capacitive pulsed power supply (CPPS), the inductive pulsed power supply (IPPS) is considered to have broader prospects because of its theoretically higher energy densities. Most recent researches focus on characteristics of the IPPS with a fixed load, which is rather different from practical applications from the engineering point of view. In this paper, with the purpose of preliminarily verifying the IPPS’s feasibility, the performance of the novel meat grinder circuit with a dynamic load model is presented and analysed under PSpice environment. The analysis model is based on the parameters of the four-module IPPS and the pulsed power load built in Institute of Electrical Engineering. Finally, the comparison between the IPPS and the CPPS with same initial energy is carried out.
