A prototype PFL was tested in a test bed at L-3 as part of the recently completed IVA design effort for flash radiographic sources in the new Hydrus hydrodynamics research facility at AWE. The prototype PFL represented one of the ten PFLs in the baseline IVA configuration. The 7 ohm water filled, coaxial PFL incorporates a laser triggered output switch followed by a self-breaking water sharpening...
Summary form only given. The 14 MV induction voltage adder (IVA) being designed by L-3 Pulse Sciences for AWE Aldermaston , UK, is powered by water-dielectric pulse forming lines (PFL) that drive each induction cell with ~60 ns 1.4 MV pulses and currents up to 140 kA. The PFL design selected is a simple water coax switched out by a 150 psig SF 6 gas switch in order to minimize prepulse. Specifications...
