Abstract

The US Army's Pulse Power Center's high-power-thyratron test facility was expanded to include the capability of evaluating switch performance at high repetition rates in either a pulse-forming network or a capacitor circuit. In addition to the existing 4 Omega network, an RLC circuit was installed. The facility was designed to test thyratrons at 55 A of average current for run times of 100 s. The system has operated reliably at 25 kV and at peak currents of 3 and 6 kA at repetition rates up to 5 kHz. A common resonant charge circuit was also installed for high-repetition-rate operation. Thyratrons from two manufacturers are being tested.<>

ETDL的高平均电流-高重复闸流管测试

美国陆军脉冲功率中心的大功率闸流管测试设施得到扩展，包括在脉冲形成网络或电容电路中以高重复率评估开关性能的能力。除了现有的4 Omega网络外，还安装了RLC电路。该设备设计用于测试55a平均电流下的闸流管，运行时间为100秒。该系统在25kv和峰值电流3和6ka下可靠运行，重复频率高达5khz。一个共同的谐振充电电路也安装了高重复率的操作。来自两家制造商的闸流管正在接受测试。
