Among all energy storage devices, the capacitor banks are the most common devices used for energy storage. The advantage of capacitor banks is, that they can provide very high current for short period. The operation of the capacitor bank is more reliable because of the use of advances in technology.
A typical low-energy storage capacitor bank schematic diagram is illustrated in Fig. 4.14. The bank consists of a capacitor bank of capacitance C s, a charging resistor Rc, a start switches S1, transmission line Tl, a crowbar switch S2, and a dissipating resistor Rd with an inductive load of L0.
The energy storage capacitor bank is commonly used in different fields like power electronics, battery enhancements, memory protection, power quality improvement, portable energy sources, high power actuators, ASDs, hybrid electric vehicles, high power actuators, off-peak energy storage, and military and aerospace applications.
The merits and demerits of energy storage capacitors are compared with the other energy storage units. The basic need of an energy storage system is to charge as quickly as possible, store maximum energy, and discharge as per the load demand.
A large capacitor bank is designed to provide a peak current of range 10-15MA at the rate of 10 12 A/s. A single spark gap cannot supply such a high current. Spark gaps with low jitter are used in parallel for high current applications. Generally, the design of a capacitor bank needs a separate spark gap.
In constant voltage charging, the voltage of the capacitor is kept constant by applying variable voltage with a maximum voltage Vmax. The voltage is applied to the capacitor through a series resistor “ R ” as shown in Fig. 4.4. When the switch S1 is closed, the current flows through the capacitor.
