Helical Flux Compression Generators (HFCG) of 50 mm form factor have been shown to produce a maximum energy deposit of 3 kJ into a 3 muH inductor from a seed current. A large dl/dt into a coupled load is possible when an electro-explosive fuse is used. Previous work with a non-optimized fuse has produced ~100 kV into a 15Omega load which leads into a regime relevant for High Power Microwave (HPM)...
Helical flux compression generators coupled with an inductive energy storage system have shown promising results as a driving source for High Power Microwave (HPM) loads. The output performance of the inductive energy storage system is contingent upon the opening switch scheme, usually an electro-explosive fuse. Our previous work involving fuse parameter characterization has established a baseline...
Helical flux compression generators (HFCG) of a 50 mm form factor have been shown to produce output energies on the order of ten times the seeded value and a typical deposited energy of 3 kJ into a 3 muH inductor. Our previous work with a non-optimized fuse has produced-100 kV into a 15 load, which leads into a regime relevant for high power microwave (HPM) systems. It is expected that-300 kV can...
Helical flux compression generators of small dimensions have been shown to produce energy output around 3 kJ into an inductive load. Adding a fuse opening switch has allowed us to produce 300 kV into a 15 Ohm load. We are investigating inductive energy storage with emphasis on an electro-explosive fuse opening switch in order to improve upon previous results. We have designed and constructed a non-explosive...
