Design of a fast, high power magnetic generator for the stimulation of living tissues: A biomedical engineering application of electromagnetism and power electronics.
Résumé
This paper relates to the design and the realization of a high power (6000 A, 650 V) magnetic generator delivering ultra short (340 µs) high intensity (2 T) pulses. More than ten years of technical collaboration between two important graduate engineering schools of Bordeaux were necessary to carry out this project. This practical realisation was supported perfectly by the power electronics, electromagnetism and microprocessor courses given at ENSCPB and ENSEIRB graduate engineering schools. In the first part, we explain the educational interests of this realisation. Then, we give a detailed description of the system, including the tests which made it possible to check the specifications. Finally we conclude on possible uses of our equipment: for instance, our apparatus was used for bio medical applications and tests on living tissues (animal, bacteria, etc).
