Analysis of Magnetic Frequency Tripler with Primary Filter

Abstract

The characteristics of a magnetic frequency tripler with connecting filter on the primary side are presented. In carrying out the analysis, mode analysis for the tripler circuit and vector analysis for the whole system including the filter have been applied.
From the results of the numerical analysis, the optimum conditions for stabilizing output power and reducing the self capacity of the system are obtained. As a consequence it is found that input current maveform and input power factor can be also improved. The results of the analysis are in good agreement with experiment, thus demonstrating that this analytical technique is useful for designing the tripler system.
