Abstract
A superconducting flux pump power supply of the transformer–rectifier type is described. Load current commutation between gates is by transformer primary current control. A simple, inexpensive system of generating the required control waveforms is outlined. Results of load magnet charging tests to currents of 500 A are given and are consistent with calculated performance.Keywords
