The Efficiency of a Two-Stage Reluctance Accelerator Through Pulse Shaping

An investigation considering the efficiency gains of electrical pulse-shaping for a two-stage reluctance accelerator system has been undertaken. An optimum gross efficiency of (1.36 ± 0.02)% was achieved, amounting to an increase of (290 ± 20)% relative to the performance of an...
