Tesla persecond to volts3/21/2023 ![]() Since the beam of particles normally is pulsed, the energy transformation in the transformer may utilize resonant behaviors of the equipment. There are several proposals for overcoming the limitations of the transformer approach. Such methods are generally expensive and require a lot of complicated and bulky equipment.Ī common problem with the above methods according to the state of the art is that the acceleration devices are large and expensive, which makes it impossible to use them in a machine located in a standard production line for most purposes. This approach is based on microwave excitation. However, when the voltage rises above 100 kV, the insulation problems become severe.Īnother approach is therefore often used for producing the high particle energies. ![]() The most common way is to use an ordinary transformer with an iron core. A relatively moderate voltage at the primary winding of the transformer is transformed to a high voltage at the secondary winding, which voltage can be used for accelerating the charged particles. The straight-forward approach is to achieve a high voltage, preferably by a transformer. There are two general approaches to achieve the high particle energies. The acceleration usually takes place in a vacuum environment, and in applications where irradiation by the charged particles are to be performed under atmospheric pressure, the charged particles are allowed to penetrate radiation windows to escape into the atmospheric environment. The particles are subjected to the field of a high-voltage difference, and are thereby accelerated. Charged particles, in most cases electrons, are emitted from a particle source, usually a filament. In the field of particle accelerator devices, high voltages are the most common means to obtain accelerated charged particles. Common to all these methods is that charged particles have to be accelerated under controlled conditions to high energies. medical treatment, sterilization and material modification. High-energy charged particles are used today for many purposes. ![]() The present invention generally relates to high-voltage transformers and in particular transformers suitable as energy supply devices for electrodynamic particle accelerators.
