| Summary: | This thesis describes a PSpice and PSCAD based design and implementation of high
voltage DC power supply at 15 kV output. It presents the detail description of the
simulation, design, development and implementation of hardware for high voltage
DC power supply in the laboratory. The conventional technique is used because the
designed DC power supply is intended to be applied either for impulse generator
charging units or laser excitation. The main components of a DC power supply are
rectifier diodes and capacitors. The output of the power supply is a fairly smooth DC
voltage. The simplest unregulated power supply consists of three parts namely, the
transformer unit, the rectifiers unit and the capacitors unit. The main emphasis of
this project is on the simulation, and design by using two different software
(mentioned earlier) to compare simulation results as well as experimental results of
the high voltage DC power supply. The economic feasibility of designing doubler or
tripler based high voltage DC power supply and observation of the fact that simulated and experimental values are different. A piece of high voltage generator is
made available to the department. Simulation and experimental results are presented.
It has been observed that the results are in agreement except due to the tolerances of
the capacitor. The system hardware has been implemented and tested in the
laboratory. |
