The project of the pulse power generator based on an inductive storage and a combination of vacuum interrupter and plasma opening switch

Abstract

Modern development of high-power pulse technique presses search for new ways of generation of nanosecond pulses. One of the possible ways for development of high-power pulse technique is pulse generation by inductive storage in conjunction with combination of vacuum interrupter and plasma opening switch and its modification. Elements of pulse generator construction: the modified variant of combination of vacuum interrupter and plasma opening switch in conjunction with arc stabilizer; the new approach to current zero circuit which will transform current zero line to Marx bank are considered in paper; way of pulses generation in the storage of transformer type namely change of coupling coefficient by used of electromagnetic screen is offered. In particular, variant of storage construction of transformer type with use of electromagnetic screen is considered in paper. One of possible variant of the generator construction is offered to consideration in the paper, estimate of cost of such generator is formed too. (3 pages)
