Simplified voltage-boosting snubber network

This disclosure describes a non-dissipative snubber circuit configured to boost a voltage applied to a load after the load's impedance rises rapidly. The voltage boost can thereby cause more rapid current ramping after a decrease in power delivery to the load which results from the load impedance rise. In particular, the snubber can comprise a combination of a capacitive element, two inductive elements, and three switches, where a duty cycle of two of the three switches controls the voltage boost. The snubber can be arranged between a DC power supply and a switching circuit configured to generate a pulsed waveform for provision to the load.

Power conditioning for high-speed machine generator

An exemplary power conditioning method and system are disclosed using a power converter in combination with a diode bridge rectifier and a series transformer in which the power converter is configured to inject VARs to a high-speed rotating machine to compensate for the machine reactance. By injecting VARs into the machine using the power converter through the series transformer, the power converter can be fractionally rated, in terms of power rating, to a lower power rating which would otherwise have to be higher due to the reactance requirements due to its high-frequency input. And additionally, because of the lower power rating, the transformer can be beneficially rated for the corresponding power level of the machine. The operation of the diode bridge rectifier and a transformer does not add to the complexity of the control of the system or that of the power converter.
