Therefore, it is widely used in material modification, energy conversion, environmental governance, biomedicine, aerospace and other fields. At present, the bipolar quasi-square wave pulse power supply suitable for dielectric barrier discharge load mainly includes three different forms of power supplies: pulse power supply based on multi-level circuit structure, pulse power supply based on Marx circuit structure and pulse power supply based on high-frequency pulse transformer structure. With the increase of output voltage level, the number of sub-module levels required for pulse power supply based on multi-level circuit structure and pulse power supply based on Marx circuit structure increases, and the number of switching devices increases sharply, which not only increases the economic cost of these two types of pulse power supplies, but also brings about the problem of synchronous driving and electrical isolation of switching devices, which greatly reduces the reliability of pulse power supply.

[0026] Embodiment 1:

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a bipolar quasi-square wave pulse power supply with a continuously adjustable duty cycle, the pulse power supply mainly consists of a current source type current conversion circuit and a step-up transformer, and is characterized in that it includes: a DC power supply, an inductor, a step-up transformer with a center tap, a diode, a first switch tube (S1), a second switch tube (S2), and a third switch tube (S3); the positive electrode of the DC power supply is connected to the first end of the inductor; the negative electrode of the DC power supply is respectively connected to the first end of the first switch tube (S1), the first end of the second switch tube (S2), and the first end of the third switch tube (S3); The second end of the inductor is respectively connected to the second end of the third switch tube (S3) and the anode of the diode; the cathode of the diode is connected to the center tap of the primary coil of the step-up transformer; the second end of the first switch tube (S1) is connected to the first end of the primary coil of the step-up transformer; the second end of the second switch tube (S2) is connected to the second end of the primary coil of the step-up transformer; the first end of the secondary coil of the step-up transformer is connected to the high-voltage electrode of the dielectric barrier discharge load; and the second end of the secondary coil of the step-up transformer is connected to the low-voltage electrode of the dielectric barrier discharge load.

[0028] In this embodiment, the first switch tube (S1), the second switch tube (S2) and the third switch tube (S3) are of the same model.

[0029] In this embodiment, the operating frequencies of the first switch tube (S1) and the second switch tube (S2) are equal, and the duty cycles of the drive signals of the first switch tube (S1) and the second switch tube (S2) are equal, and the sum of the duty cycles of the first switch tube (S1), the second switch tube (S2) and the third switch tube (S3) is 1.

[0030] In this embodiment, the duty cycle D of the first switch tube (S1) is 1 and the duty cycle D of the second switch tube (S2) 2 The range is: 0.1≤D1 =D 2 ≤0.4; the duty cycle D of the third switch tube (S3) 3 The range is: 0.2≤D 3 ≤0.8.

[0031] The equivalent circuit diagram of the pulse excitation generating circuit of the utility model is as follows Figure 2 As shown. Among them, E is the DC power supply, L is the inductor, D is the diode, i S is the current flowing through the inductor, S 1 , S 2 and S 3 They are the first switch tube (S1), the second switch tube (S2) and the third switch tube (S3), N P and N S are the number of turns of the primary and secondary windings of the transformer, L s1 , L s2 They are the leakage inductance of the primary coil of the transformer, L m1 , L m2 is the magnetizing inductance of the primary coil of the transformer. d and R d is the equivalent capacitance and equivalent resistance of the DBD load, i DBD and u DBD are DBD load current and load voltage respectively.

[0032] In this embodiment, control Figure 2 The switch drive timing of the circuit shown is as follows Figure 3 As shown. Figure 3 It can be seen that the operating frequencies of the first switch tube (S1) and the second switch tube (S2) are equal and the duty cycles of the drive signal of the first switch tube (S1) and the drive signal of the second switch tube (S2) are equal, and the sum of the duty cycles of the first switch tube (S1), the second switch tube (S2) and the third switch tube (S3) is 1.

[0033] In a positive half switching cycle, the system's operating mode can be divided into the following two modes.

[0034] Mode 1(t 0 -t 1 ): This stage is the pulse output mode, such as Figure 4 As shown, in this mode, the first switch tube (S1) is turned on, the second switch tube (S2) and the third switch tube (S3) are turned off, and the current source i formed by the DC power supply E and the energy storage inductor L S The step-up transformer provides energy to the DBD load, and the current i flowing through the energy storage inductor L SThe DBD load voltage and current both start to rise rapidly from zero at the same time. When the DBD load voltage rises to the maximum value, the DBD load current also crosses zero again. Then the DBD load voltage and current show a decaying oscillation trend and gradually tend to a steady state. The DBD load voltage remains stable and the DBD load current is approximately zero.

[0035] The circuit constraint equation of mode 1 is (L s1 and R d Small values ​​are ignored):

[0036]

[0037] Among them, i m1 is the current flowing through the magnetizing inductance L m1 The current, N is the transformer ratio.

[0038] Mode 2 (t 1 -t 2 ): This stage is the pulse cutoff mode, such as Figure 5 As shown, in this mode, the third switch tube (S3) is turned on for the first time, and the first switch tube (S1) and the second switch tube (S2) are turned off. The DC power supply E provides energy to the energy storage inductor L, and the current i flowing through the energy storage inductor L is S Due to the reverse cutoff effect of diode D, the energy storage inductance L and the excitation inductance L m1 Mutually isolated, the excitation inductance L m1 The energy stored in the diode cannot flow through the diode and can only flow to the DBD load through the transformer. m1 And the equivalent capacitance C d At the same time, the equivalent resistance R d Energy is released, the DBD load voltage gradually decreases, and the DBD load current gradually decays to zero after a reverse rising process.

[0039] The circuit constraint equation of mode 1 is (L s1 and R d Small values ​​are ignored):

[0040]

[0041] Among them, i m1 is the current flowing through the magnetizing inductance L m1 The current, N is the transformer ratio.

[0042] When a system is determined, the equivalent parameters of the transformer and the equivalent parameters of the dielectric barrier discharge load are determined, and the characteristic parameter values ​​of the excitation pulse output by the pulse power supply can be obtained by solving the circuit constraint equations of mode 1 and mode 2 above.

[0043] When the system operates in steady state, the working modes of the positive half-cycle and negative half-cycle of the system are consistent.
