Abstract
The design and operation of a command resonant charger feeding a high repetition rate pulse generator using an advanced pseudospark device is presented. An application - corona assisted flame ignition and combustion - is discussed briefly. This application requires operation of the pseudospark switch at 30 kV charging voltage and 1 kHz repetition rate. The charging time of the 6 nF / 30 kV quasi Blumlein pulse forming circuit capacitance is 50 μs. Operation is burst mode, with maximum 100 pulses per burst.
