INDUCTOR APPARATUS FOR APPLICATION TO FERRORESONANT REGULATORS

摘要

: An inductor structure is combined with a ferroresonant regulator as a filter inductor in one instance, and as a regulating inductor in another. In one example, a ferroresonant voltage regulator includes a pair of shunt filters at its output to reduce the low order odd harmonic content of the AC output. The filtering arrangement includes two LC shunt filters having their independent inductor windings wound on a single magnetic core unit. Auxiliary windings coupled to each of the inductor windings are placed in series with the output to buck any remaining harmonics. In a second instance, independent regulating inductors in a multiphase ferroresonant regulator are also realized on a single magnetic structure.
