The Effect of Transmission Lines and Switching Action on the Electrical Signals in a Powerful Capacitive Discharge

A numerical model for the equivalent electrical circuit of a capacitive discharge that includes the effects of finite closure time of switches and finite transit time in the transmission line is presented. An approximate analytical method to predict the oscillations that can be excited in the circui...

Sumario:A numerical model for the equivalent electrical circuit of a capacitive discharge that includes the effects of finite closure time of switches and finite transit time in the transmission line is presented. An approximate analytical method to predict the oscillations that can be excited in the circuit is developed. The numerical solutions of the model are compared with experimental signals measured in a plasma focus device. © 1990 IEEE
