Abstract:
The paper describes a small-size explosive current source with controllable output voltage shaping a megaampere current pulse. This energy source comprises a helical explosive magneticgenerator and an explosive sectionalized current opening switch and is designed to power gas-discharge chambers of the plasma focus type. Control of the output voltage of the pulsed current source is performed in such a manner that in each of the series-connected sections of the explosive current opening switch, voltage is generated with a given time shift relative to the neighboring section.
Keywords:
explosive magnetic generator, explosive current opening switch, plasma chamber.
