Abstract |
The pulse generating circuit system of the so-called turbulently-heated theta pinch is experimentally investigated, and its results are compared with the predictions based on the conventional theory. The conventional theory assumes that the impedance of the pinch coil is independent on the time rate of change in voltage (or current) across the pinch coil. The experimental pulse height of the voltage actross the pinch coil is about 1.5% fo that predicted by the conventional theory. |
