Abstract
For transmitting voltage and current between a source and a load, a magnetic amplifier with a power winding connectable with the source and the load and with at least one control winding is provided, and current and voltage difference between the source and the load are controlled by applying a portion of a rectified source voltage to the at least one control winding of the magnetic amplifier, and applying a portion of a rectified load voltage to the at least one control winding of the magnetic amplifier to prevent the current from exceeding a level which can endanger the source and/or the load and to minimize the voltage difference between the source and the load.
Claims15
A method for transmitting voltage and current between a source and a load, comprising the steps of:
- connecting a magnetic amplifier having a power winding and at least one control winding with the source and the load;
- controlling current and voltage difference between the source and the load by applying a portion of a rectified source voltage to said at least one control winding of said magnetic amplifier;
- applying a portion of a rectified load voltage to said at least one control winding of said magnetic amplifier to prevent the current from exceeding a level which can endanger the source and/or the load and to minimize the voltage difference between the source and the load;
- and
- obtaining a weighted sum of the portion of a rectified source voltage and the portion of a rectified load voltage and applying the weighted sum to said at least one control winding of the magnetic amplifier.
A system for transmitting voltage and current between a source and a load, comprising:
- a magnetic amplifier with a power winding connectable with the source and the load and with at least one control winding;
- control means for controlling current and voltage difference between the source and the load, said control means including means for applying a portion of a rectified source voltage to said at least one control winding of said magnetic amplifier;
- and
- means for applying a portion of a rectified load voltage to said at least one control winding of said magnetic amplifier to prevent the current from exceeding a level which can endanger the source and/or the load and to minimize the voltage difference between the source and the load,
- wherein said control means include voltage summation means obtaining a weighted sum of the portion of a rectified source voltage and the portion of a rectified load voltage to said at least one control winding of the magnetic amplifier.
