Steady-state radiation ablation in the wire-array Z pinch
The mass ablation phase of a wire-array Z pinch is investigated using steady-state r , simulations. By identifying the dominant physical mechanisms governing the ablation process, a simple scaling relation is derived for the mass ablation rate ṁ with drive current I, in the case where radiation is the primary energy transport mechanism to the wire core. In order to investigate the dependence of...
متن کاملMulti-dimensional high energy density physics modeling and simulation of wire array Z-pinch physics
The twoand three-dimensional ~2D and 3D! versions of ALEGRA-HEDP @A. C. Robinson and C. J. Garasi, ‘‘Three-dimensional Z-pinch wire array modeling,’’ Computer Physics Communications, submitted# have been utilized to simulate discrete wire effects including precursor formation in 2D (r-u plane! and nonuniform axial ablation ~3D!. Comparisons made between 2D and 3D simulations indicate that 2D si...
متن کامل250 kA compact linear transformer driver for wire array z-pinch loads
We present the application of a short rise ( 150 ns) 250 kA linear transformer driver (LTD) to wire array z-pinch loads for the first time. The generator is a modification of a previous driver in which a new conical power feed provides a low inductance coupling to wire loads. Performance of the new design using both short circuit and plasma loads is presented and discussed. The final design del...
متن کاملthe effects of changing roughness on the flow structure in the bends
flow in natural river bends is a complex and turbulent phenomenon which affects the scour and sedimentations and causes an irregular bed topography on the bed. for the reason, the flow hydralics and the parameters which affect the flow to be studied and understand. in this study the effect of bed and wall roughness using the software fluent discussed in a sharp 90-degree flume bend with 40.3cm ...
Wire initiation critical for radiation symmetry in z-pinch-driven dynamic hohlraums.
Axial symmetry in x-ray radiation of wire-array z pinches is important for the creation of dynamic hohlraums used to compress inertial-confinement-fusion capsules. We present the first evidence that this symmetry is directly correlated with the magnitude of the negative radial electric field along the wire surface. This field (in turn) is inferred to control the initial energy deposition into t...
