Design of a Novel High-Power Density Negative Ion Virus Destructor for Confined Shipboard Space

During the outbreak of the COVID-19, the shipboard spaces receive lots of attentions due to the confined space and limited air flow. This article is dedicated to design a compact and effective equipment to eliminate Covid-19 on cargo ships to ensure the safety of the crew. Due to the limited space in cargo ship, it would be better to design a light and small virus destructor with high power density. Therefore, a high frequency converter circuit is proposed. The circuit parameters and layout has been carefully considered and designed. In that case, voltage regulator with a high frequency transformer can work at relative optimal state. To further optimize the high frequency transformer, a nanocrystal toroid is used instead of traditional ferrite cores. The control system is proposed, which can help monitor the movement of people on board. If someone is going over the warehouse, then camera will send a digital signal to the core controller to change the operating voltage of the virus destructor. Also, the picture will send to database for storing and looking up in the future.
