Abstract
Compact pulsed power systems require power sources that are small in size yet can produce the necessary electrical energy required to drive the system. Helical magnetic flux compression generators (HFCGs) are attractive for single shot applications due to their rapid conversion of chemical energy to electrical energy. The small total volume of a generator coupled with the energy density of the fast-reacting high explosives makes mid-sized HFCGs an appealing option as sources in single shot compact pulsed power systems. Consistent output current and energy gain from shot to shot are key variables in the ability of an HFCG to drive compact pulsed power systems efficiently.
