In design of a parallel resonant induction heating system, choosing a proper capacitancefor the resonant circuit is quite important. The capacitance affects the resonant frequency, outputpower, Q-factor, heating efficiency and power factor. In this paper, the role of equivalent seriesresistance (ESR) in the choice of capacitance is significantly recognized. Optimal value of resonancecapacitor i...

The use of a low finesse enhancement cavity resonant with a low average power (<1 W) and a high repetition rate (78 MHz) pump source is shown to achieve 55% conversion efficiency into signal and idler from the coupled pump in an optical parametric process, whereas an equivalent amount of pump power in a single-pass configuration leads to negligible conversion. Careful comparison of the intracav...

Problem. Today, it is extremely important to solve the problems of efficient conversion various types energy (solar, wind, thermal, etc.) into electricity, which a non-alternative factor in comfort existence and development all mankind. In this regard, undoubted interest practically accessible technical developments aimed at solving above modern electric power industry should be highlighted. So...

In this paper, class DE inverter with second order constant K band-pass filter is proposed. In the proposed inverter, the band-pass filter is used instead of the resonant filter in class DE inverter presented at the previous papers. By using band-pass filter, two important results can be gotten. One is the sensitivity of the output voltage to the operating frequency is suppressed by using band-...

Constant-current (CC) power supplies find applications in many fields. The Resonant immittance converters (RICs) convert a voltage source to the current source, thereby render them suitable for its application as a CC power supply. A fourthorder RIC topology, TT44 , is studied in this paper. Detailed steadystate analysis is presented. Procedure to perform converter optimization that leads to cl...

We propose a scheme for efficient cavity-enhanced nonlinear THz generation via difference-frequency generation (DFG) processes using a triply resonant system based on photonic crystal cavities. We show that high nonlinear overlap can be achieved by coupling a THz cavity to a doubly-resonant, dual-polarization near-infrared (e.g. telecom band) photonic-crystal nanobeam cavity, allowing the mixin...

In this project reduced switching losses and high efficiency is proposed for quasi resonant converter. An AC/DC quasi resonant converter with push pull topology is coupled to two distributed boost inductors into a single magnetic core which hereby reducing the circuit volume and the cost are the development targets of switching power supply today. The quasi resonant converter has ideally zero s...

We describe power-dependent dynamics of conversion of the guided modes of various guiding structures due to nearly resonant longitudinal modulation of the nonlinear coefficient of the medium. It is shown that the control of the energy exchange integrals, as well as of the input weights of the interacting modes, is especially crucial for efficient mode conversion in the setting considered here. ...

In this paper, a boost converter with a clamp circuit is proposed for high intensity discharge (HID) lamp application. The clamp circuit provides zero voltage turn on for both main and clamp switches. Compared to conventional boost converters, the proposed converter has the following advantages: (i) high voltage gain without suffering from extreme duty ratio, (ii) low stress on the switches and...
