Pulsed power generator based on inductive storage and skin-effect opening switch (Energy correlation and technical application)

Abstract

The skin-effect opening switch (SEOS) with joint combinations a semi-conductor opening switches (SOS) or else plasma opening switch (POS) is one of possible technical solution that lets to use transformer inductive storage (TIS) in pulse power technique. This combination has several attractive properties: durable functioning of each components and a good ratio of (ts) storage time of (tout) — energy output to the load one ts/tout ~107÷108 under high pulsed power level. A high relation ts/tout lets effectively output energy to a load from TIS both single pulse and pulse train generation. Absolute stability of the SEOS with joint combinations both SOS and POS can be applied them for parallel operation.
