In order to facilitate the selection of an optimal topological structure for rational pulsed capacitor charging power supplies (CCPS), this paper presents a comparative analysis of CCPS based on permanent magnet excited (PME) and electrically excited (EE) homopolar inductor alternators (HIA). The findings indicate that the daxis transient inductance of the PME HIA is marginally greater than that of the EE HIA, a result that contradicts initial expectations. Notably, the PME HIA does not require consideration of transient flux variations, whereas the EE HIA does. The study establishes relationships among the enhancement of charge performance, efficiency, capacitance, frequency, and field winding (FW) resistance. It is observed that as capacitance, frequency, and FW resistance increase, there is a corresponding improvement in charge performance. The equipotential line representing the enhancement of charge performance approximates an inverse proportional function, suggesting that if the product of FW resistance and capacitance, or the product of FW resistance and frequency, remains constant, the improvement in charge performance will also be constant. Furthermore, it is noted that as capacitance and frequency increase, the improvement in efficiency diminishes, which is contrary to the trend observed in charge performance. To comprehensively evaluate the enhancement of charge performance and efficiency, a weighted function is proposed. This function aids in the selection of a rational topological structure for CCPS, distinguishing between those based on PME HIA and those based on EE HIA. Based on the results derived from the weighted improvement analysis, appropriate topological structures for CCPS can be identified according to varying capacitance, frequency, and FW resistance. Specifically, when the product of capacitance and FW resistance, or the product of frequency and FW resistance, is substantial, the PME HIA is recommended; conversely, the EE HIA is preferred in other scenarios.
1) Initially, at time 0, the actuator modifies the MMR’s position to short-circuit the PM’s MMF. At this point, the HIA’s no-load magnetic field is extremely low, which can effectively reduce the HIA’s iron core loss when it is not loaded. From time 0 to ${t}_{\text{begin }}$, the HIA rotor is speeded up from zero to its maximum operating speed by means of the prime mover.
2) From time ${t}_{\text{begin }}$ to ${t}_{\text{begin }} + {t}_{\text{MMR }}$, the actuator controls the MMR’s position to keep it away from the PM when the capacitor has to be charged. The HIA air gap can create a normal-amplitude magnetic field, and the back EMF is emitted in the winding.
3) At time of ${t}_{\text{begin }} + {t}_{\text{MMR }}$, the rectifier bridge’s thyristors are activated simultaneously, and the capacitor is then charged via the rectifier bridge. The HIA rotor’s inertial energy storage is transformed into electrical energy on the capacitor during charging.
4) At time of ${t}_{\text{begin }} + {t}_{\text{MMR }} + {t}_{\text{charge }}$, after the voltage on the capacitor reaches the predetermined level, the rectifier bridge’s thyristors are then turned off and the discharge circuit switch is activated, releasing the electric energy stored in the capacitor into the pulse load instantaneously.
(1) The amplitude of the no-load air-gap magnetic flux density for both the PME HIA and the EE HIA is equivalent. However, during idling conditions, the amplitude of the no-load air-gap magnetic flux density for the PME HIA does not diminish to zero, resulting in a residual no-load iron core loss.
(2) The d-axis transient inductance of the PME HIA is lower than that of the q-axis transient inductance and is marginally greater than the d-axis transient inductance of the EE HIA, which does not align with intuitive expectations. Furthermore, the q-axis transient inductance of the PME HIA is equivalent to that of the EE HIA.
(3) In the AVM of the CCPS based on the PME HIA, the variation of transient flux does not require consideration. Conversely, the deterioration of charging performance resulting from transient flux attenuation must be factored into the AVM of the CCPS based on the EE HIA.
(4) When the charging duration is approximately 0.45 times the electromagnetic time constant of the EE HIA, the enhancements in charging performance and efficiency are -8% and 6.1%, respectively. Conversely, when the charging duration is about 4.5 times the electromagnetic time constant of the EE HIA, the improvements in charging performance and efficiency are 13% and 0.9%, respectively.
(5) The relationships between the enhancement of charge performance, efficiency, capacitance, frequency and FW resistance have been established. It is observed that an increase in capacitance, frequency and FW resistance correlates with a greater enhancement in charge performance. The equipotential line representing the improvement in charge performance can be approximated as an inverse proportional function. This indicates that if the product of FW resistance and capacitance remains constant, or if the product of FW resistance and frequency remains constant, then the enhancement in charge performance will also remain constant. Furthermore, it is noted that as capacitance or frequency increases, the improvement in efficiency diminishes.
(6) A comprehensive analysis is presented to determine an optimal topological structure for CCPS, comparing those based on the PME HIA with those based on the EE HIA. A weighted function is introduced to evaluate the overall enhancement of charge performance and efficiency. Utilizing the results of this weighted improvement, a suitable topological structure for CCPS can be identified, taking into account varying capacitance, frequency, and FW resistance. In scenarios where the product of capacitance and FW resistance, or the product of frequency and FW resistance, is substantial, the PME HIA is recommended. Conversely, the EE HIA should be employed when these products are comparatively lower.
