Abstract
A transportable standard module developed at the Institute of Experimental Physics as a component of an energy source for modeling current pulses of positive lightning is described. The source is designed as a combination of several unified helical explosion–magnetic generators with output transformers and an inner diameter of the stator of 200 mm. According to our calculations, the source generates current pulses with an amplitude of up to 100 kA in loads with an inductance of ∼100 μH and a resistance of several tens of ohms. The results from testing a typical module operating with a circuit having an inductance of ∼100 μH and a resistance of ∼4 Ω are presented. The experimental data coincide well with the results of a mathematical simulation of the module's operation.
