Abstract--Performance testing of the model-scale CPA was recently completed at the University of Texas Center for Electromechanics. A major part of the project was the development of design and simulation codes that would accurately represent the performance of pulsed alternators. This paper discusses the components of the system and its operational sequence. Details of the performance simulation model are presented along with test data. The test result is compared to the predicted data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
