This paper discusses the design and simulation of pulse width modulated based circuit for induction melting application. This high frequency inverter topology have the practical advantages of energy saving, clean environment, high output power due to low switching losses, less electromagnetic noise and low total harmonic distortion. This two stage power converter has single phase full bridge rectifier, DC filter, zero voltage switching pulse width modulation controlled high frequency inverter. In this work, the steady state operation and control strategy of pulse width modulated high frequency inverter is analyzed. In order to achieve energy efficiency switching losses are reduced by operating the inverter above resonance frequency. Input side supply harmonics is also reduced using EMI filter. The simulation of the designed high frequency power supply is carried out at a frequency of 20 kHz using MATLAB simulink tool. Simulation results proof the energy saving due to reduction in switching losses of the presented control strategy and reduction in harmonic distortion of the presented power supply for induction heating load.

This paper introduces a mathematical model for Pulse-Width Modulated Amplifier for DC Servo Motor. The relationship between pulse-width modulated (PWM) signal and reference rotation speed is specified, and a general model of motor represented by transfer function is also put forward. When the input signal changes, the rotation speed of the servo motor will change accordingly. By changing zeros and poles, transient performance of this system is discussed in detail, and optimal ranges of the parameters is recommended at the end of discussion.

AbstractAn anti-resonance pulse forming network (PFN) has been designed, analyzed, and tested for its application in generating quasi-square pulses. According to the circuit simulations, a compact generator based on two/three-section network was constructed. Two-section network is applied in the generator due to its compact structure, while three-section network is employed for generating pulses with higher quality. When two-section network is applied in the generator, the full-width at half-maximum of the load pulse is 400 ns, at the same time, its rise time, flat top and fall time are 90, 180 and 217 ns, respectively. When the three-section network is applied with the same pulse width of the load pulse, the rise time of the output decreases to 60 ns, while the flat top increases to 240 ns and the fall time reduces to 109 ns. Meanwhile, this kind of network could be used to shape the output pulses of generators whose equivalent circuit is LC series discharge network, such as MARX generator, into quasi-square pulses. And the preliminary experiment demonstrates that anti-resonance network could work well on four-stage Marx generators. A sine pulse generated by the four-stage Marx generator is shaped into a quasi-square pulse with voltage of 11.8 kV and pulse width about 110 ns based on two-section anti-resonance network.
