    A design of high-voltage multipliers to generate underwater shockwaves is one of the most important factors for successfully providing non-thermal food processing in a cost-effective manner. To be capable of fully utilizing the Cockcroft-Walton-based high-voltage multipliers for underwater shockwave generation, this paper presents a topological modification of three interesting design approaches in bipolar structure for 220 V and 50 Hz AC input to generate more than 3.5 kV DC output within short time periods. In addition to Cockcroft-Walton multipliers (CWMs), the first modified scheme employs a positive full-wave rectifier (FWR) and positive voltage multiplier block (VMB), the second modified scheme employs positive/negative half-wave rectifiers (HWRs), and the last modified scheme employs a switched-capacitor AC-AC converter. To comparatively analyze their performances, the digitally controlled operations of the modified realization schemes as well as their electrical characteristic estimation based on a four-terminal equivalent model are described in detail. The effectiveness of three modified circuit configurations and the correctness of the given theoretical analysis are verified through SPICE (Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis) simulation results. The formulas achieved from theoretical estimation are particularly useful when designing the proposed high-voltage multipliers (HVMs) because good agreement between the theoretical and simulation results can be achieved.

    Non-thermal food processing using underwater shockwaves is a cost-effective technology for preserving food items with minimal impacts on their nutritious property. In order to generate underwater shockwaves, a high voltage multiplier is the major element for system hardware implementation. To support the 220V and 50Hz AC input for generating 3.7kV DC output, this paper presents the high voltage multiplier based on switched capacitor technique. The proposed circuit consists of three main components, which are AC-DC rectifier, level shift driver, and parallel-connected voltage multiplier circuit. The theoretical relationship analysis utilizing a 4-terminal equivalent circuit is described for investigation of not only the output voltage but also the energy loss due to internal resistance and the power efficiency of the proposed high voltage multiplier. In addition, the operations of the proposed circuit are also simulated by using PSPICE program to confirm its workability.

    In order to be practical for converting 220 V and 50 Hz AC input into high DC output ranged between 3.5 and 4.0 kV to create underwater shockwaves in non-thermal technique for processing foods, this article presents an alternative approach for modifying conventional high voltage multipliers without magnetic elements, which are based on the use of parallel-connected Cockcroft–Walton multiplier blocks (CWMBs) in bipolar structure. The basic three-stage CWMB scheme as well as the effect of different capacitor values on its output is described. The modified high voltage multiplier with improved response speed consists of a full-wave rectifier (FWR), a two-phase driver block, a parallel-connected positive CWMB, and a parallel-connected negative CWMB. Both output voltage and power efficiency of the proposed scheme can be demonstrated by theoretical analysis results. Moreover, simulation results showing the characteristics of the proposed high voltage multiplier are also included.
