Two-Channel Capacitive Ignition System with a Transistor Converter for Ground-Based Gas-Turbine Engines

Abstract

A prototype of a two-channel capacitive ignition system for ground-based gas-turbine engines is developed. This system is based on a single-stage flyback transistor converter with a field-effect transistor controlled by an integrated timer. The timer operates in square-wave generator mode, with additional low-voltage voltage stabilization.
