Design analysis and experimental results of the thyristor pulse feeders for the ion treatment process

From among many heat and chemical treatment methods offered on market the most effective ones proved to be the processes carried out in glow discharge conditions. By carrying out a computer simulation of the technological system inverter-chamber for ion nitriding the authors determine the most appropriate characteristics of the thyristor pulse feeders. A computer simulation of the feeder-chamber system is carried out in order to choose the values of commutation inductance, capacitance, inductance and the gear of each thyristor.
