Abstract
Mass sweeping and current efficiency factors (f m and f i ) are two important parameters in Z-pinch devices, because one can compute those to better analyze Z-pinch dynamics. In this paper, the advanced shock model was employed to calculate and compare the aforementioned parameters for ACOL Z-pinch in three different working regimes. It was found that f m is in the range of 0.12–0.13 for hydrogen gas at p 0 = 400 and 800 Pa pressures and f m = 0.13 for helium gas at p 0 = 260 Pa. Similar works have resulted f m in the range 0.10–0.16. Therefore our computations of f m values (range 0.1–0.13) agree with the f m range, and it confirms our model. Therefore, the factors can be precisely being calculated using advanced shock model for various Z-pinch systems at different working regimes.
