Utilization Optimization of Capacitive Pulsed Power Supply in Railgun

The excitation pulse current used to drive the railgun needs to present very a high magnitude (hundreds of kA) flat-top with very low ripple. At present, the main method to obtain this current is to increase the number of the capacitive pulsed power supply (PPS) modules. However, low utilization and...
