METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEM FOR MULTI-ELECTRODE ELECTRO-HYDRAULIC PLANT (VARIANTS) AND DEVICE FOR REALIZATION OF SAID METHOD Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: electric engineering.

SUBSTANCE: system for controlling power supply for multi-electrode electro-hydraulic plant has body with water, power source, n capacitors, n working electrodes submersed into water and n dischargers switched in between capacitors and working electrodes. Method includes charging capacitors from power source and consecutive activation of dischargers. Capacitors are cyclically connected to power source. At any time moment to power source at least one capacitor is connected, charged to working voltage and disconnected from power source, i-numbered discharger is activated at the moment, when i-numbered capacitor connected to it is disconnected from power source, i-numbered capacitor is connected to power source after finishing of discharge process and restoring non-conductive state of i-numbered discharger, while i=1…n. Device for realization of method has body filled with water, high-voltage power source, n capacitors, n working electrodes submersed in water and n dischargers, each of which is switched in between capacitor and working electrode. All dischargers are made controlled, and a commutator is additionally inserted into device, n-channel device for activating dischargers and diodes. Commutator has n keys controlled cyclically in such a way, that at any moment at least one key is non-conductive, each key is connected to high-voltage power source output by one end, and by other end through diode is connected to one of capacitors, while i-numbered discharger launch channel is synchronized to non-conductive state of i-numbered commutator key, where i=1…n.

EFFECT: increased productiveness.
