Analysis, design, and implementation of multiple parallel ozone chambers for high flow rate

It is well known that ozone concentration depends on air/oxygen input flow rate and power consumed by the ozone chamber. For every chamber, there exists a unique optimum flow rate that results in maximum ozone concentration. If the flow rate is increased (beyond) or decreased (below) from this optim...

Electronics Nuclear engineering It is well known that ozone concentration depends on air/oxygen input flow rate and power consumed by the ozone chamber. For every chamber, there exists a unique optimum flow rate that results in maximum ozone concentration. If the flow rate is increased (beyond) or decreased (below) from this optimum value, the ozone concentration drops. This paper proposes a technique whereby the concentration can be maintained even if the flow rate increases. The idea is to connect n number of ozone chambers in parallel, with each chamber designed to operate at its optimum point. Aside from delivering high ozone concentration at high flow rate, the proposed system requires only one power supply to drive all these (multiple) chambers simultaneously. In addition, due to its modularity, the system is very flexible, i.e., the number of chambers can be added or removed as demanded by the (output) ozone requirements. This paper outlines the chamber design using mica as dielectric and the determination of its parameters. To verify the concept, three chambers are connected in parallel and driven by a single transformer-less LCL resonant power supply. Moreover, a closed-loop feedback controller is implemented to ensure that the voltage gain remains at the designated value even if the number of chambers is changed or there is a variation in the components. It is shown that the flow rate can be increased linearly with the number of chambers while maintaining a constant ozone concentration Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. 2014 Article PeerReviewed Amjad, Muhammad and Salam, Zainal (2014) Analysis, design, and implementation of multiple parallel ozone chambers for high flow rate.

Analysis, design, and implementation of multiple parallel ozone chambers for high flow rate
description It is well known that ozone concentration depends on air/oxygen input flow rate and power consumed by the ozone chamber. For every chamber, there exists a unique optimum flow rate that results in maximum ozone concentration. If the flow rate is increased (beyond) or decreased (below) from this optimum value, the ozone concentration drops. This paper proposes a technique whereby the concentration can be maintained even if the flow rate increases. The idea is to connect n number of ozone chambers in parallel, with each chamber designed to operate at its optimum point. Aside from delivering high ozone concentration at high flow rate, the proposed system requires only one power supply to drive all these (multiple) chambers simultaneously. In addition, due to its modularity, the system is very flexible, i.e., the number of chambers can be added or removed as demanded by the (output) ozone requirements. This paper outlines the chamber design using mica as dielectric and the determination of its parameters. To verify the concept, three chambers are connected in parallel and driven by a single transformer-less LCL resonant power supply. Moreover, a closed-loop feedback controller is implemented to ensure that the voltage gain remains at the designated value even if the number of chambers is changed or there is a variation in the components.
