Abstract
- An advanced technique of energy compression with the third harmonic circulating current generation is presented in this paper to improve the surface treatment performance in the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) systems. First, the relationship between the energy compression degree and contact angle is explored, which shows that the polymer surface wettability can be improved by the high energy compression degree in DBD. And then, an additional inductor is inserted into the resonant tank in the current-fed parallel-series resonant converter to generate the third harmonic current component, which can reduce the discharge-time-ratio and compress the energy transferred to the DBD loads. Furthermore, the method of rectifier-compensated fundamental plus third harmonic approximation (RCFTHA) is introduced to describe the current-fed parallel-series resonant converter by superposing two equivalent linear circuits operating at the fundamental and third harmonic frequencies, respectively. Consequently, the discharge-time-ratio optimization with the parallel-series resonant tank design is realized. Finally, the experimental results from a 350-W prototype substantiate the effectiveness of the energy compression with the third harmonic circulating current and the accuracy of RCFTHA.
