Abstract
Novel explosive and conventional pulsed-power technologies were combined, and a series of explosive-driven high–voltage power supplies was designed, built, and tested. The power supply contained an explosive-driven high-voltage primary power source based on the fundamental physical effect of shockwave demagnetization of Nd2Fe14B high-energy ferromagnet and a power-conditioning stage. The volume of the energy-carrying ferromagnetic elements in the shockwave ferromagnetic generators (FMGs) was 8.75 cm3. The power-conditioning stage was based on the spiral vector inversion generator (VIG). The combined FMG–VIG system demonstrated successful operation and good performance. The output-voltage pulse amplitude of the combined FMG–VIG system exceeded 40 kV, with a rise time of 6.2 ns. The methodology was developed for digital simulation of the operation of completely explosive FMG–VIG system. Experimental results obtained are in a good agreement with the results of digital calculations performed.
