Analysis of Dual Resonant Solid State Tesla Transformer
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 6
Abstract
In this paper, Analysis of dual resonant solid state tesla transformer (DRSSTS) is carried out. The fundamental difference between this types of tesla transformer and spark gap tesla transformer, is using of one or more power electronic switch instead of spark gap. Likewise DRSSTS is different from the solid state tesla transformer due to the addition of a primary tank capacitor. In this paper, tesla transformer is fed by full bridge inverter that generates square wave. For the sake of simplicity, tesla transformer is modeled only by lumped elements and resistive losses are neglected. Then, analytical equations for Tesla transformer’s output voltage and primary side current, are calculated and conditions of increased tesla transformer’s output voltage are also investigated. Using Euler numerical integration method and switching function concept, the effect of tesla transformer’s operation, on inverter dc side voltage and current have been evaluated. The test system is simulated in MATLAB/Simulink software, and validity of calculated equations, is verified by simulation results.
