Abstract

A self-integrating Rogowski coil with magnetic core is investigated for accurate measurement of high-impulse current in this paper. Usually, the distributed parameters of Rogowski coil generate deleterious high-frequency resonant signal parasitizing in the useful signal of the coil circuit. Damping resistors can be used to eliminate the parasitic resonant component of the signal. In this paper, damping effects of the damping resistors on the output signal of Rogowski coil are studied in detail. According to circuit theory, approximate circuit equations of Rogowski coil with lumped parameters in simplification are put forward. Response signal of coil is analyzed and a reasonable method for choosing damping resistance is also presented. When the 50Ω damping resistance is used, the amplitude of parasitic resonant signal has been damped by 5.7 times in contrast to the situation without any damping resistance. Result of Pspice circuit simulation corresponds to the theoretical calculation result. A standard 10ns square pulse has been used to calibrate the coil signal before and after the damping resistors soldering on the coil, respectively. Experimental results show that the response time of the coil with magnetic core is 1.1ns and the parasitic resonance in the coil signal is almost eliminated. The coil can accurately detect high-pulse current at kA range.
