The relationship between inductor paramrters and performances of the stretch meat grinder pulse power supply

Abstract

Slow TRansfer of Energy Through Capacitive Hybrid (STRETCH) meat grinder circuit is a widely used topology in inductive pulse power supply (IPPS), so it is important to understand the relationship between the IPPS performance and the inductor parameter when designing the inductor and improving the system performance. From the inductor design perspective, this paper uses two parameters to indicate the inductors, and uses four performance indices indicate the performance of STRETCH meat grinder circuit, then through simulations and experiments analyzes the changing rules of the four performance indices along with the change of these two parameters.
