    摘要: A system, in certain embodiments, includes a power supply. The power supply includes an ultracapacitor configured to be charged by a DC source. The power supply also includes a first switch that enables charging of the ultracapacitor by the DC source when in a closed position and disables charging of the ultracapacitor when in an open position. The power supply further includes a second switch configured to enable discharging of the ultracapacitor when in a closed position and to disable discharging of the ultracapacitor when in an open position. As the ultracapacitor is discharged, a current is supplied to actuate a shape memory alloy element.

    摘要: A system, in certain embodiments, includes an accumulator having a first plate, a second plate positioned at an offset from the first plate, and a shape memory alloy wire extending between the first and second plates from a first wire portion to a second wire portion. The shape memory alloy wire is configured to move the first or second plate to adjust a fluid pressure in response to an electrical current through the shape memory alloy wire. The accumulator also includes a wire clamp assembly coupled to the first wire portion and/or the second wire portion of the shape memory alloy wire.
