Control development for an 18 MW pulsed power converter using a real-time simulation platform

Abstract

In the frame of the LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) project, a new main power supply (MPS) for the PSBooster accelerator is required. The largest element of the new MPS is the 18 MW main power converter (MPC). The paper presents the design of the MPC control software, using Rapid Control Prototyping.Presented at: EPE 2015, 7-10 September 2015, Geneva, Switzerland Geneva, Switzerland October, 2015 Control development forCharles-M CERN, E charles-mathieu.genton Keywords<<DC power supply>>, <<3-level accelerator>>, <<Rapid control pro AbstractIn the frame of the LHC Injecto PSBooster accelerator is required.(MPC).
