Abstract
A novel brushless self-excited air-core compensated pulsed alternator (BSACPA) is presented in this paper. It consists of two submachines in cascade, among which one serves as an exciter and the other works as a generator. The rotor windings of the two submachines are connected by a reverse phase sequence to realize reversal of the magnetic field. The stator windings are connected by a rectifier to realize the brushless self-excited structure. As an air-core compensated pulsed alternator (CPA) of new topology, it is necessary to derive its mathematical model and carry out a comparative design. Thus, this paper focuses on the detailed design and analysis of a BSACPA prototype, which includes dimensional design and equivalent circuit establishment. In addition, the critical speed is also acquired. Accordingly, the numbers of winding coil turns are designed to increase the discharge current and power based on the theoretical analysis. Finally, the analysis and design are verified by finite-element analysis (FEA).
