The Study of Breakdown Voltages for Triggered Spark Gap Switches
This study explains the breakdown mechanism in different triggered spark gap switches. Two different trigger electrode configurations are tested for the switch predischarge operation in a nitrogen laser circuit. The behavior of the breakdown voltage, when a trigger pulse is applied to the trigger electrode, is investigated, and the results are reported. Based on the experimental measurements ne...
متن کاملAdvances in Semiconductor Devices and Their Growing Use in Electrical Circuits and Systems
The main aim of this investigation is to assess the suitability of modern power semiconductor devices for pulse power applications. Pulse power system involves the storage of energy, which is released in form of high power pulse to the load by means of a switching device. Hence the basic components of pulse power system are an energy storage element, a switch, and a load circuit. The energy sto...
متن کاملPulsed energy storage antennas for ionospheric modification
Interesting, “new”, very high peak-power pulsed radio frequency (RF) antennas have been assembled at the HIPAS Observatory (Alaska, USA) and also at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA, USA); namely, a pair of quarter wavelength (λ/4) long cylindrical conductors separated by a high voltage spark gap. Such a combination can radiate multi-megawatt RF pulses whenever the spark gap fi...
متن کاملVOLTAGE AND CORREN'l' MEASUREMENTS OF A lASER PREIONIZATION TRIGGERED HIGH VOLTAGE SWITCH
Voltage and current measurements of a laser preionization triggered spark gap switch (50 kV, 18 kA, 100 nsec} reveal a voltage drop across the gap of several kilovolts during the current plateau for a variety of gas mixtures. This voltage drop is much larger than what is generally believed to exist in a spark gap switch during the conduction phase. The reasons for the large voltage drop are exp...
متن کاملHigh Voltage Pulsed Atmospheric Pressure Helium Plasma Jet
Non-equilibrium cold plasma jets generated under atmospheric pressure by means of high voltage pulsed power generator are extended up to a few centimeters long in the surrounding air. The generator is consisting of a negative dc source, a Blumlein-type pulse-forming network (E-PFN), and a dynamic spark gap switch. The plasma jet generated by the device using helium as the operating gas depends ...
