CONTROLLED SHUNT REACTOR

Theoretical and experimental studies for development of bias-controlled reactors have been carried out by A,Bamdas, H.Becker, E.Friedlander, M.Libkind and other authors. -A great number of complicated circuits and regimes have been considered in the literature devoted to the magnetic amplifiers (transductors) (see, for example, [1, 2)). Here we propose a new approach and results which we have not seen in literature. This problem is interesting because large controlled reactors have been developed nor?. For example, the magazine "Elektrotekhnika" No.2,1991 is fully devoted to controlled reactors. To develop the design methods for such reactors and to use efficiently conventional methods and programs for calcuIations of power transformers and uncontrolled reactors: a simple approach is desirable to explain the clectromagnetic processes. Our approachh is based -in the reactor circuit given in IV, However, the real reactor manufactured in Zaporozhje has separate power and control windings (PW and CW) as in the well-known au magnetic amplifiers (Fig.l).
