New Type High Voltage Generator

A high voltage generator has been developed with an extremely small ripple component by incorporating resistors in series in the filament transformer of the center-tapped Cockcroft Walton circuit. The rating of the prototype is 500 kV, and incorporates the following features, (See Fig. 1)1.The generator itself is perfectly symmetrical with respect to the output circuit.2.Stray capacitance (Cs) between the primary and secondary windings of the filament transformer can be reduced to negligible proportions.
