Design and Analysis of a Low-Power, High-Voltage, High-Frequency AC Power Supply for Ozone Generation with Highly Non-Uniform Electric Field

Abstract

This paper presents the design and analysis of a low power, high voltage, high frequency AC powersupply for ozone generation, which energy is converted from a 12V, 12A-hr battery are proposed in this paper.The main circuit consists of, a constant 100VDC for DC boost regulator, a fly back converter with a step-uptransformer and only one switching device and two insulator coaxial cylindrical electrodes with electric fieldfactor η * ≤ 20% for highly non uniform electric field and voltages range between 2.391-2.808kV. The study,design and construction of electrode are proposed. Then simulated of the design is using MATLAB/SIMULINKverifies correct operation compared with the experiment is given. Performance of the prototype under variousoperating conditions such as variations of output voltage, which affects generated ozone level, has beeninvestigated.
